[Evolution] Removing duplicate emails?

2011-07-29 Thread Andre Klapper
Dear developers,

as I'd like to cover this in the new Evolution user docs that slowly get
into shape: What is the current (3.1.x) story for average users to
remove downloaded duplicate emails?

The FAQ includes
https://live.gnome.org/Evolution/FAQ#Why_does_Evolution_download_duplicate_emails.3F_How_can_I_get_rid_of_them.3F_Why_does_Evolution_reload_old_mails_from_server_when_.22Leave_a_message_on_the_pop_server.22_is_activated.3F
but e.g. on Fedora 15 there is no evolution-remove-duplicates package
in gpk-application anymore, so I assume it is outdated.

In the Message menu is an option to Remove Duplicate Messages. But [I
believe] it only removes duplicates of the current message; it doesn't
scan a folder to remove 'all' duplicates.

I believe the way it works is:
Enter folder
CTRL-A to select all message
Select remove duplicates

[Evolution] Removing duplicate emails

2007-06-22 Thread Reid Thompson
I've had good success using this e-plugin so thought I'd note it to the
list.  (Perhaps a pointer on the e-plugins page to this??)

Finally had time to apply NotZed's suggestions (Thanks!) to the small
evo plugin I wrote to remove duplicates, and as of evo 2.3.2, plugins
can be compiled independently, eliminating the need of patching evo
sources, really good stuff :) 

IMHO, the next great step would be to create a small repository for
plugins (i.e.: a evolution-plugins-extras VCS module), cluttering evo
sources with plugins that will be barely used might not be very
desirable, and OTOH cluttering the CVS with small software pieces like
this would be crazy.

So, while I don't know where to put the thingy, the code is here
http://www.gnome.org/~carlosg/stuff/evolution/ . Enjoy!

Cool!  Does it, or is there a way to make it work automagically on
incoming mail or does it only work on selections?
