I have a Squish question that I have not been able to find the answer for
in the documents.

I have one message area that is rather active and I have gotten a bit
behind in due to business travel and such.  Since it is the LINUX echo, it
has a very high "good message content" rate, so I don't want to
dump the messages, and since I have plenty of disk space, I don't have any
real need to do so.

The question I have is:  With Squish and a *.msg message base, is there a
maximum message number that can be handled?  Back in "the old
days" I would use the renumbering feature of CONFMAIL to renumber the
messages periodically to keep the ranges more reasonable.

And I am using *.msg format because I have become rather comfortable with
them over the last 15 years or more of being a point, and why change a
known good thing?  :-)

I guess that I could get the SQUISH source and check it out myself, but
with only most weekends and about every third or fourth workweek in town,
that might take a while.

Thanks for whatever assistance can be supplied.
