Hi,
Using the bitcoin 0.5.1 client, with a new bitcoin datadir and blockchain I had 0.001BTC sent to one of my addresses, and there are no other transactions.
The client shows 0.004 for that transaction.
The client shows no other transactions.
pywallet -dumpwallet shows no other transaction.
Blockexplorer shows the address as having 0.001BTC.
a -rescan does not change this. What do I actually have and how can I find out? I'm running on Windows.
Regards,
marked

Were you sent 0.001 by that same person at the same time to different addresses?
That transaction is a "send many" transaction. If more than one of the transaction outputs goes to you, they are lumped together into the same transaction by the satoshi client.

Companies claiming they got hacked and lost your coins sounds like fraud so perfect it could be called fashionable. I never believe them. If I ever experience the misfortune of a real intrusion, I declare I have been honest about the way I have managed the keys in Casascius Coins. I maintain no ability to recover or reproduce the keys, not even under limitless duress or total intrusion. Remember that trusting strangers with your coins without any recourse is, as a matter of principle, not a best practice. Don't keep coins online. Use paper or hardware wallets instead.

So, 4 x 0.001 tx from a single originator each of which were sent to 4 different addresses. How is it determined that 0.004 is shown as a single tx and how does it determine that it was for the 1EW.. address? Just because it is first?
and does this accumulation apply to other clients not just the mainstream client. marked |

The system deems this all as one transaction because it was sent by the sender that way.
Sendmany's are rare and are often used to do bulk distribution of bitcoins with minimum transaction fees, it also cuts down on the number of kb's the transaction takes. I load casascius coins with sendmany. The idea that one transaction contained 0.004 to you - even if spread across 4 transactions - is a reasonable view for a client to take, that is how the network sees it, it is one transaction on the network of which 0.004 is yours.
