they didn't seem to be generated on my system so i've quickly manually
generated the info flavor... here's what it says about DupeBaseType...

===== snip =====

File: hpt.info,  Node: DupeBaseType,  Next: DupeHistoryDir,  Prev:
AreasMaxDupeAge,  Up: Files and Paths

3.3.3 DupeBaseType
------------------

Syntax:
     'dupeBaseType '
Example:
     'dupeBaseType HashDupesWMsgId'

TextDupes
     stores from, to, subj & msgid as text lines.
HashDupes
     stores src32 of from + to + subj + msgid.
HashDupesWMsgId
     same as HashDupes, but stores also msgid as text.
CommonDupeBase
     stores hashes of from + to + subj + areatag + msgid in one file
     (hpt_base.dpa)

   Default is 'HashDupesWMsgId'.

   This statement cannot be repeated.

===== snip =====

so it looks like you get to choose one and only one DupeBaseType for all
areas... you cannot mix and match... i'm also using HashDupesWMsgId...
