argghh... I overlooked this. Sure, this clarifies greatly. However, I
still do not get if there is a windowing mechanism for msgno. I assume
even if there is none, a client should be clever enough not to send
10,000 messages without any reply - but this is not explicitely
outruled. My apologies if I am again missing the obvious, but I will
make sure I understand things crystal-clear as in my experience only
this helps to avoid (at least some) later security and interop issues.

I appreciate your help very much!
