Re: [Evolution] deleting duplicate

I keep posting this way too often during the last days. If I get some
time, I probably should rewrite and clean up the old threads...

To solve the dups issue you can use 'formail' (mbox files, I assume, as
are Evolution default). I already posted a working solution a couple of
times to this list.

I just searched my archives [1]. For the script itself and a couple of
warnings, caveats and notes, please read this link (better, the whole
discussions) and all links mentioned there.

Use it at YOUR OWN RISK. And MAKE BACKUPS of your mail first. Paranoia
saves your day.

again... ;-)
