     Thank you for the help. Using wildcards did the trick. I never XEDITed
to add the subscriptions, and the only way I can think of how the entries
sneaked on the list was when I issued the move operation. I sent a MOVE command
to move subscriptions from A to B. After a day, site A still hadn't moved the
subscribers, so I believe I got impatient and issued a DEL on the few
subscribers at A and then issued an ADD or ADDHERE to site B. Maybe this
caused the problems.
     Anyways, I was able to weed out the problems with wildcards, so thanks.
