    Title: persistDuration
    Jacques,
     
    David may be taking today off.  I'll jump in with an attempt at an answer.
     
    The MessageId value is required to be unique.  We mean globally, universally and forevermore unique.  Based on that requirement, a duplicate message should never be created except as part of retries for reliable messaging (or through a faulty transfer).  MSH implementations are not required to remove messages from their persistent store immediately after their duration has expired, leading to other problems with identifier reuse.
     
    The wording you've called out basically says the same thing as our equation relating retries and time to live plus "don't waste time and energy sending something after its time to live has expired".  I'd recommend including words to that effect in the description of sending MSH reliable messaging behaviour.
     
    thanx,
