Big bad message crash

Elftown has been down all day in a try to repair the message database. It failed after 10 hours of rebuilding (It's huge so it takes time to do anything with it!). The message-database crashed when it became too big to fit it's current limitations and then it also refused to resize itself because it was crashed.

I had to restore an old message database, but it's now rebuilt to stand at least 10 years of messaging of a growing Elftown.

The sad fact is that all messages sent after Sun 16 Jan 2005 8:34:57 UTC are lost.
