How about turning the whole solution around?
Get a list from showjob of all the executing jobs. Go through the list
looking for a job signed on the same way as yourself, being sure to skip
yourself.
Something like:
!file sjlist,oldtemp
!if finfo('*sjlist','exists') then
! purge sjlist,temp
!endif
!file sjlist;temp;msg;rec=-72,1,f,ascii
!showjob job=@j;exec>*sjlist
!while finfo("sjlist","eof") <> 0
! input sjline < sjlist
! setvar sjword word(sjline)
! if lft(sjword,1) = '#' then
! if "!sjword" <> "#!hpjobtype!hpjobnum" then
! setvar _jobuseracct jinfo("!sjword","jobuseraccount")
! if "!_jobuseracct" = "!hpjobname,!hpuser.!hpaccount" then
! tell manager.!hpaccount Found a duplicate job!
! endif
! endif
! endif
!endwhile
