Yes.
o Open a new spreadsheet (Calc) document.
o Paste your list into a column.
o Select the range containing the list
if you are on a unix machine or a linux machine,
and your list is a text file (lets say mylist.txt);
then you can eliminate duplicates in this way:
sort -f mylist.txt | uniq > mylist2.txt
the -f option ignores the case of the characters (ie. upper or lower).

I do not know what you mean by "using a TextEdit". However I can offer the
following suggestions (all presume each mail list address is on a single
line) ...
1. sort the address list and then remove the duplicate entries by
inspecting the list
2. for a long list, import the entries to a table
Hi Friends,
Is there a way to remove duplicates from a mail list using a TextEdit with
OpenOffice on a Mac Computer?
Thank you for your time!
