It should not be possible for the user to erase messages from memory. When the memory is full, the oldest messages should be overwritten by new messages.

  6.1.2 The user should be able to tag individual messages for permanent retention. These messages may occupy up to 25% of the available memory and should not be overwritten by new messages. When no longer required, the user should be able to remove the tag on these messages which may then be overwritten in normal course.
