Description Ashish 2007-08-22 07:23:19 UTC
After many system upgrades and hardware changes since year 1992 and VAX,
I have about 11.000 archived emails (and 35.000 in spam folder) in 65
sub-subfolders. There are at least a few hundred duplicates somewhere in
the folders that I want to remove.

There is no "find and remove duplicates in current folder" feature in
Evolution.

Another good enhancement to Evolution would be "paste unique", where I could
select multiple messages and drop them in another folder, and then Evolution
would only drop the unique ones (i.e. not create duplicates).
