You MUST include the combination of a count and a date.  And no, DBRs
aren't sufficient for practical use (for you need to make a DBR for
each individual message, and DBRs normally just point to today's
latest item).  You need to include the combination of a date and
count, and in addition, actually make the combination of a date and
count the PREFERRED method (for various reasons, which I call the
"find-the-lastest-message" problem).
