Caching of messages and their images isn't a problem and should be
pretty easy to add. The only issue i can see is messages with video
(images with refresh set). For these I would realistically be only
storing the first frame.
As far as history goes there are three ways. All messages stored by day,
kept for x days. Just keep messages for today.Just keep messages
received while away. My personal preference would be the last and it's
certainly the easiest to do too. The first option is definitely the
hardest! What do you think?
