Hi Peter, and thanks for your reply.

Unfortunately, I zapped all of the doppelgangers as soon as I saw them.
Will endeavor to leave them intact the next time, for your diagnostic
purposes. I'm pretty sure that all the duplicates I was seeing were either
from this list or from the VOICE list. Odd coincidence.

You know, I can't rule that out. There were a few glitches recently,
probably right before or during message downloads.
