Hi Tommy,
Yes, I agree that existing addresses should be kept. When I wrote that I
removed duplicates, what I actually meant was that I removed duplicates of
existing addresses from the addresses that I am planning to add.  That is
to say that only missing addresses will be added.  Sorry about being
unclear.
Thanks!
Leif
