With messenger also installed a big error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare shorter_name() (previously declared in /home/aaa/public_html/bbb/sites/ccc/modules/messenger/messenger.module:43) in /home/aaa/public_html/bbb/sites/ccc/modules/messagebox/messagebox.module on line 48

I had to adjust the database (switch of the module) to recover the error.

After that I first switched off the messenger module (not deinstall!). And than switch on the message box.
This worked.

In the tab modules/deinstall the messenger is there: do not de-instal messenger: this deletes your old messenger db witch is used by messagebox.

Request: the de-install of messenger has to be removed from the de-instal list when updating to mesage box.

fixed: renamed the function to use messagebox namespace
to avoid database errors switched over to a new independent table {messagebox}. On install of this module the messages from messenger will be automatically copied over to the messagebox tables.
