Hello A. & others on TBUDL following this thread,
Sunday, January 14, 2001, you stated regarding :
S>> I am on several mailing lists that receive quite a few

S>> Is there an easy way to delete the duplicates without having to

There is a way that works for me, but not all of the time. That is,
it works with some but not other duplicate mail sources.
ACM> AFAIK, you can't kill dupes if they reside in separate folders.
True, but - all you have to do is filter both to the same folder.
Then hit alt+f+k and see what happens. ( As stated above, this
works perfectly for me with some lists but not others).
ACM> I'm afraid you're stuck with doing it manually.
If that proves to be so in some of the cases, it's still going to be
much easier to delete if you've got them in the same folder. If
after running kill dupes you still have duplicates, just select the
subject column and decide which of them you want to eliminate. Of
course you'll have to empty the trash folder regularly or have it
set to clear on closing.
Douglas.
