Hi All,

My Pmmail/2 had multiple duplicates in the address book.

Every time I closed the address book and then closed PmMail/2
and then reopened PmMail/2,, the address book entries were
duplicated.  ie Each launch of PmMail/2 and subsequent reopening of
the address book, resulted in one additional duplicate of the 
existing entries.

I ended up with 7 dupes at one stage.
I fixed it by highlighting all the extras and deleting all but one of them.
The first time I did this it did not work. 
Previously I had highlighted all except the top of the listing. 

So I figured I would leave the unhighlighted (not deleted ones) 
at the bottom of the address book listing.  This worked.!

Now after much opening and closing of both PmMail/2 and its address
book, I finally have only ONE of each entries..

I have NEVER seen any os/2 problem like this.  Is it a known problem.?

In the windows side of the system I am using the latest beta
version 2.20.2475 of PMMail 2000 for Windows and I know I have
made corrections to the address book while using the windows version.

The even stranger thing was that in the whole address book, all
but 4 entries where being duplicated.  The 4 that were uneffected
were entries made while using the windows version.!

All is well so far.  Anyone know what happened.?

TIA
BobT.
