sync with Android still copies Private entries (Solved)

[nodrog]

Hi.

I have been trying to export just my Public EPIM contacts to EPIM on my Moto G3 phone, without the Private groups, but EPIM insists on including them.
I have the latest versions of EPIM on both PC and phone (updated again today to make sure)

I have around 1700 contacts in Groups which I have made private, and I have tried in vain to export the others alone.
I have deleted the EPIM system account on the phone, deleted all local contacts from the phone itself, emptied the cache and uninstalled, cleaned, re-installed EPIM for Android and checked that is is not finding any contacts on the phone before syncing.
I then made sure "Include Private items in Export/Sync" option was unchecked in the Security section of Options, and sync is set up to transfer from PC to Phone only.

When I check, all the contacts in the Private folders have been transferred.

Any suggestions?

Update - I realized I needed to make each individual contact Private, and that making the group private just hid the label, not the entries in that group. Live and learn...

FYI, I've had the INVERSE of that problem, wherein --and for reasons unknown-- whole sections of my data (mostly in Notes) suddenly acquired that "Private" icon, and, as there was no discernible way to batch-handle them, I'd have to one-at-a-time individually declassify them (and not with my mind, neither.)
