I use the DB File to save mailings from a lightweight Mailing List Manager I develop. The only time something needs to be removed is when the administrator deletes an email message that saved in the DB FIle archive. The keys are created using the date, so no 2 keys are ever used twice. If the removed entries' space is reused later, that's perfectly fine. My test archive was about 3.5 megs, about 100 messages worth.

I still have the problem of entries not being removed at all. Anyone else have this?
