WvV> Well, normally you want to base your MSGID on the time, and not use a sequence number. Because if you re-install the application (within 3 years), it will probably restart at 0 again, and you have created duplicate MSGID's...

Not only that, but if/when this gate software is used on other systems, it could be a problem when the msgids all resume from 00000001.  A better formula might be a combination random hex number+serial hex.
