Don't understand contains.

I don't understand why this code enters the same value to the list twice.

                        if mids contains k then
				log "mids " & mids
				beep
				--move eachMessage to mailbox named "Duplicates"
				copy eachMessage to end of selected_messages
			else
				log "Adding k " & k
				copy k to end of mids
			end if

at the end of this mids contains

(*Adding k Saturday, September 30, 2000 9:43:44 PM///1997-2000/// <user@host>///I didn't go to see movie*) (*mids Saturday, September 30, 2000 9:43:44 PM///username/// 001501c02b51$984cf6e0$58839bcb@justine*) (*mids Saturday, September 30, 2000 9:43:44 PM///username/// 001501c02b51$984cf6e0$58839bcb@justine*) (*mids Saturday, September 30, 2000 9:43:44 PM///1997-2000/// <user@host>///I didn't go to see movie*)

now why/how is it possible that this has duplicate values?

It seems that it depends on how I construct k

for instance

when I run this with

set k to mid & (date sent of eachMessage)

get message viewer 1 message viewer id 366213184 get selected messages of message viewer id 366213184 {message id 242300 of mailbox "Duplicates", message id 242301 of mailbox "Duplicates"} get message id of message id 242300 of mailbox "Duplicates" "000801bfc414$6b8791a0$3e839bcb@justine" get date sent of message id 242300 of mailbox "Duplicates" date "Monday, May 22, 2000 12:36:56 PM" (*Adding k 000801bfc414$6b8791a0$3e839bcb@justineMonday, May 22, 2000 12:36:56 PM*) get message id of message id 242301 of mailbox "Duplicates" "000801bfc414$6b8791a0$3e839bcb@justine" get date sent of message id 242301 of mailbox "Duplicates" date "Monday, May 22, 2000 12:36:56 PM" (*mids 000801bfc414$6b8791a0$3e839bcb@justineMonday, May 22, 2000 12:36:56 PM*) beep (*mids 000801bfc414$6b8791a0$3e839bcb@justineMonday, May 22, 2000 12:36:56 PM*) set selected messages of message viewer id 366213184 to {message id 242301 of mailbox "Duplicates"} beep


here it's correct

now if I reverse those fields

ie.

set k to (date sent of eachMessage) & mid

here contains didn't work as it's added the value twice

why is that?

get message viewer 1 message viewer id 366213184 get selected messages of message viewer id 366213184 {message id 242300 of mailbox "Duplicates", message id 242301 of mailbox "Duplicates"} get message id of message id 242300 of mailbox "Duplicates" "000801bfc414$6b8791a0$3e839bcb@justine" get date sent of message id 242300 of mailbox "Duplicates" date "Monday, May 22, 2000 12:36:56 PM" (*Adding k Monday, May 22, 2000 12:36:56 PM:000801bfc414$6b8791a0 $3e839bcb@justine*) get message id of message id 242301 of mailbox "Duplicates" "000801bfc414$6b8791a0$3e839bcb@justine" get date sent of message id 242301 of mailbox "Duplicates" date "Monday, May 22, 2000 12:36:56 PM" (*Adding k Monday, May 22, 2000 12:36:56 PM:000801bfc414$6b8791a0 $3e839bcb@justine*) (*mids Monday, May 22, 2000 12:36:56 PM:000801bfc414$6b8791a0 $3e839bcb@justine*) (*mids Monday, May 22, 2000 12:36:56 PM:000801bfc414$6b8791a0 $3e839bcb@justine*) set selected messages of message viewer id 366213184 to {} beep _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
