/**
 * XEP-0136 Message Archiving outlines a complex protocol for:
 * 
 *  - archiving messages on the xmpp server
 *  - allowing the client to sync it's client-side cache with the server side archive
 *  - allowing the client to configure archiving preferences (default, per contact, etc)
 * 
 * There are times when this complication isn't necessary or possible.
 * E.g. the server doesn't support the message archiving protocol.
 * 
 * In this case you can simply set clientSideMessageArchivingOnly to YES,
 * and this instance won't bother with any of the server protocol stuff.
 * It will simply arhive outgoing and incoming messages.
 * 
 * Note: Even when clientSideMessageArchivingOnly is YES,
 *       you can still take advantage of the preference methods to configure various options,
 *       such as how long to store messages, prefs for individual contacts, etc.
