Fix memory leak in Inbox::addToInbox() (usage of raw DB_DataObject::staticGet, which leaks memory into a process-global cache).

On my test setup, this fixes inbox delivery to 10,000 local recipients from background queuedaemon running with a 32mb memory limit, completes the job within a minute from start.
