"Sass" has the letter S occur three times. Find a word that has two different letters occurring three times. (I found one such word that is only eight letters long.)

(In reply to computer solution 6-, 7- and 8-letter words by Charlie)

One can add to the list the following:

7 cachaca
8 bepepper
8 cachacas
8 easeless
8 goosegog
8 halakhah
8 minimism
8 pappadam
8 passatas
8 seceshes
8 seedness
8 seemless
8 sestette
8 sestetts
8 sewellel
8 siriasis
8 teddered
8 tettered
8 tsessebe
8 undeeded
8 weddered

For a nine-letter word with three different letters each occurring thrice, there is:  sestettes (six-line stanzas; sextets)
