Re: multiple email address with same user?

Hmmm...

I managed to get all the email address out.  Now I went to re-import 
them and I get an error:
Failed to subscribe xxx@xxxxxxx
importing xxx@xxxxxxx
There is no local user with the specified address.

the only thing I changed was the confirm unsubscribe.  Any ideas what 
else I munged without knowing?
Thanks!

Jim
