Well, one thing that could cause duplicate mails is this
scenario:
- - you are retrieving mail from your ISPs POP3 server, and
suddenly the line drops and the connection is cut. Well the
server as smart as it is, will all mail as being new again
because the mail retrieval didn't finish as it should have.
Now you are downloading *all* your messages again, and after the
download completes OK you will use the Kill-dupes function to
erase all duplicate mail :)
Sometimes I get dupes in a diff manner, which I can't really
explain :( But heh, I can live with it :)
