SyncAB and sdtname

[Eric Sharakan - Sun High Performance Computing <Eric.Sharakan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I haven't tried EditAB, but have been trying SyncAB with Solaris 7's address 
manager (aptly named "sdtname").

There seem to be some minor incompatibilities.  My initial sync copied my pilot 
address book into separate vCard files, as sdtname requires.  However, when I 
use sdtname to say, lookup someone and compose an email to them (by clicking on 
the email icon), it complains about "Unsaved changes for <name>".  If I then 
click "save" under the Card menu, a subsequent attempt to compose an email 
works, but looking at the underlying vCard file reveals that it's now different 
(trailing semicolons deleted; newlines added, etc).  In addition, going to 
another address entry and then back to the one I just saved, sdtname again 
starts complaining about "Unsaved changes...".

Has anyone experienced this?  Is it due to some problem(s) with the conversion 
in SyncAB, problem(s) with sdtname, or something else?  I dare not try to sync 
any AB changes back onto my palm!
