NO! The M is not a bug, it is a new feature by which DX4Win reports QSLs
that are sent by either paper, LoTW, or eQSL. This is not something Paul
should fix.

Start with the DXCC SUMMARY report. Note that the v7 column QSL Mailed

Mailed has a special meaning. We don't send paper QSLs for all our
QSOs, but we do upload them all. Uploading is a step on the way to

I have to agree with Jim on this one...
With electronic confirmations we (eventually) upload everything so the M
is pretty well meaningless.

for the cards... then there is postage on top of that.

You seem to be missing the point Larry.
In the case of an electronic gamble as you put it... the M conveys nothing
as ALL contacts are uploaded fairly frequently.
If you also frequently QSL 100% that would also be the case for postcard
gambles. But, in fact, even those who do QSL 100% often

If we ignore the groups for a moment... I don't understand how you would
have duplicates. Are you sure you have not loaded some data twice? I'm
not sure the group issue is relevant. If you send me the 2 ADIF files I

I am not an expert on Groups, but I thought you had to assign Group names
starting with 1, rather than zero. I thought Zero combined the entire

Create a log in Group 0. Put a single, dummy QSO in there. Then create
Groups 1 to 3 for your separate log imports. That should work.

Did you count the QSOs after... there should be 123 + 87 = 210. Using
ignore, for example, results in a count of 209... one QSO rejected.
Interestingly D4W reported 3 different QSOs in error on different
occasions. Something is broken.

When you disable certain confirmations (QSL, LoTW or eQSL) the

compared to hard coding the QSL card by itself. When two or three QSL
