First: Please START a NEW THREAD IF you ask anything UNRELATED.
This means, delete the "In-Reply-To:" Field in the header or
compose an eMail freshly. Thanks.
Second: I get a lot of duplicates too, might they be the answers of my
postings or whatever. For this reason, I have defined in my
configuration settings the following statements:
## BEGIN
# delete duplicates on folder-entry
#
folder-hook . 'push <delete-pattern>~=\n'
# collapse all threads when entering a folder
#
folder-hook . 'push \eV'
# set the default sorting.
folder-hook . set sort=threads
# mark all emails as deleted in my spam folder
#
folder-hook spam 'push <delete-pattern>.\n'
# delete all emails from a domain that spamed debian-lists
#
folder-hook linuxdebian 'push <delete-pattern>~f.*@guadagnare.it\n'
## END
HTH
