I had the same problem with a corrupted IBM Domino mailfile which gave me lots of duplicates, however imapsync with the options "--useheader Date --useheader Subject --skipheader X.*" to eliminate headers according to date+subject did the trick. Alternatively you could have a look at the Thunderbird Addon "Remove Duplicate Message (alternate) 0.39" - havent used it on large IMAP folders but works also nicely. hth, infoomatic
