I've got an application that a client uses to import email list from Excel spreadsheets into a database for use to send e-newsletters to specific groups.
The database has grown quite large, and when importing list to specific group at this point, they're forgetting if a particular email address had already been added, and needs something that prevents duplicates from being added to the list. I can think of a couple of clumsy (resource intensive) ways to check the addresses being imported against what's already in the database, but there must be an optimal way to do it. <cf_check_duplicates_before_insert> ??
