Tip: don't let other programs do data violence in the MailMate message 
cache.

The MM search database indexes the message cache but MM can't tell that 
the underlying message file has been deleted until it tries to access it 
and finds nothing. If you need to automate deletion of messages from 
outside of MailMate, it can be scripted.
