I have this problem too. I am using procmail that I set up to catch duplicate
(using the example), but unfortunately when there are too many mails it does
not work (message ids need to be in cache, but cache size is limited). Still,
if you take your mails often that might be enough for you. Or you can use a
bigger cache, I use 32kb now but i'm going to increase that.
