Hi,
OK, that makes sense. How could I make a GAE mail handler idempotent? Is
there any unique identifier associated with an inbound email that I can
reference, or will I truly need to build the .equals logic to analyze the
email elements (including attachments) to know if it is a duplicate?
The Message-Id: header is suppose to be unique for every email.

Hi,
Yes, your code gets (probably) executed more than once because it is
scheduled as a task in a task queue defined in the architecture of
GAE.
As such your code as to be idempotent (the word you were looking for)
because it can be executed multiple times: Google highly recommend to
guarantee
