It means that different databases have different keys named
'address@hidden'.  I think Derek said earlier that he had done
some key change, or something like that.

I'm probably partly to blame, as I joined together the data from
Graydon's and from Derek's servers, and got one of those keys while
Graydon got the other, or something like that...  Gah...

I'll dig a little in my databases and see if I can do some kind of
recovery that removes this mess.

I take it as an indication that key handling needs to be altered.

Cheers,
Richard
