well, the problem happened for a duration of two days after-which I manually 
deleted the old messages from the server.
after that it didn't happen again.
so I have no way of checking that unlit it will happen again perhaps I can 
compare the ID's of the deleted messages to their identical older messages... 
should do that just for curiosity.

thanks,
YB.
