1. Open the Address Book.

2. If you don't already have an address list, create one.

3. Select the address list, and click on [Properties].

4. Add several addresses not already in the Address Book, 

   including one or more of the form "name<address@service>".

5. Click OK. 

   > BUG 1: Each of the new addresses is displayed in the address list twice.
   > BUG 2: The last character of the name is missing from "name<address@service>" addresses.

6. Make some changes to one address. 

   > The change appears in both copies of the contact,
   > showing that the duplicates are just duplicate displays of a single entries.

7. Delete one of the contacts from the address list. 

   > The address now appears only once the address list.

8. Switch the display to another address list or to the Address Book.

9. Reopen the address list. 

   > Each new contact is there only once,
   > except for the one deleted in step 7,
   > confirming that the duplicate displays were of single entries.
