To access just the messages would require understanding the DB structure and writing correct queries to retrieve/manipulate/delete the records. It seems to me that the messages are tagged with consistent id's so this should be possible.

I have to confess it's been really long time since I have looked into insides of a sql database... I did some course work on postgresql in the university but that was last millenium
Thanks!

So from what I gather it means if we retrieve the meta.db before doing a tracker reset and restoring it back, the messages etc should not be lost right?

I'm not familiar with sql but looks like this is a good excuse to get familiar with it...
