Hello There,

I again made the same mistake with a newer version (1.6.4) of Aftershock adding
an echo with a misspelled echotag. I tried deleting the message area from
within Aftershock but was unable to delete it. I then manually deleted the
.sqd, .sqi, and .sql files for that echo. But when Aftershock loads the echo
still shows up and Aftershock generates an error "Unable to access message
base: file too small" for that message area.

Manually deleting the sql files for a particular message area worked fine with
the earlier version of Aftershock.
