Hi Maurizo,

Technically, even if you were using duplicate suppression it would not  
be a huge loss to store it on a local filesystem.

You don't usually see duplicate id's unless someone's MTA goes  
bonkers; or their MUA is stupid; oh and SPAM.

So yeah go for it, that'll save you a good deal of heartache.
