That's probably the problem here. The user had LOTS of (duplicate!)
mails in his inbox.
Anyone ever found a reliable way to do this?
It sure would be nice if dovecot could perform this on a per account and/or per
maildir/mailbox case with a
simple doveadm command...
The basic question is: what is a duplicate?
I spot 100% duplicates within the same Maildir mailbox with a script similiar to
"fdupes"
http://linux.die.net/man/1/fdupes .
Because an user may copy messages around, I scan one mailbox at a time.
For some rare cases, where I merge two accounts, I use a script, that looks for
the message id in one account and
removes all messages with the same id in the other account. Than I merge the
Maildirs.
However, neither script I would call general enough for automatic processing
dbmail has just "suppress_duplicates = yes" and silently ignores
*new received* messages with the same message-id to the same user
as a global setting
Wasn't there a thread some days/weeks ago, that Pigeonhole behaves the
same by default and the poster asked how long the timeframe is Pigeonhole
remembers the ids?
Actually, I still wonder about whether or not the same message-id is
sufficient to decide to "silently drop" a message, as I interprete "to
ignore a message" as "to drop". They might came different paths, some MUA
might not generate ids unqiue world-wide or time-depended, ... . It's a
matter of taste, IMHO.
