Latest and hopefully last iteration of ripe-81++

	Introducing several updates a day when the 'changed'
attribute has a granularity of 1 day can result in inconsistancies in the
database when you use email for the update. More than 1 update a day
should be avoided in your current implementation.

PS: Yes Tony "The software allows more than one update a day":
 - i send a update at 15:00, but i have email problems and the mail is
delayed 1h (common value with sendmail).
 - i send a update at 15:20 because i realized i did a typo. The email problem
is gone and the mail is not delayed.
 - The result is left as an exercise for the reader :-)
Actually i am wondering if 'dbupdate' check the date in the email header?
