Huge Inbox

Ok, I´m not using skiplist, since at time of compilation I choose de default 
DB3. But now that I have a production environment for at least 15 months using 
db3, how can I change it to skiplist, I mean, how could this be done 
considering de production environment and users happiness!

Regards

Wander
