The common way to solve this which does not cost extra database space would be to store a unique but permanent identifier per aox instance, and then use a one-way-hash (e.g. MD5) to make your UUIDs difficult to guess (it only needs to fill in part of the UUID this way; the message number itself could still be transparently present). -- Stephen.
