Due to a misstake I got many duplicate emails in my inbox folder.

Ironic mispeling.

They are stored in maildir format, so my initial thought was do simply
md5sum the mail files and remove the duplicates. This doesnt work
because the mails has differinf uids. Any other hints?

If the UIDs are just headers, why don't you simply checksum without them:

        sed -e '/^Whatever-header:/d' < $file | md5sum
        grep -Ev '^Whatever-header:' < $file | md5sum
