Echom, message-history & silent

When using echom in vimrc to display messages (for example trying to record debugging information in if clauses), they trigger the 'press-enter to continue' dialog.
If you prefix echom with silent, you they won't trigger the 'press-enter to continue' dialog, but they also aren't stored in the message-history buffer.
I've been looking around for awhile, but haven't found any working solutions to this problem (logging debugging messages to message-history with echom, without triggering the press-enter dialog).
I was hoping it would be covered in your manual (which is fantastic, btw), but I don't see it. Do you have any suggestions?
