Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 354272

(Thunderbird :: General, enhancement)

Description

Hi,  Not really a bug but a missing function.

When installing a new machine or shifting to ThunderBird, and then
importing messages from different back-ups and former message managers,
just to make sure to loos nothing in case the back-ups are corrupt,
Then reorganizing them in a new clean hierarchy of folders,
You get several examples of the same messages.

A tool to clean doubles in the same folder would be faster and safer.
Options would be "accept this deletion", "accept differences of 1 hour in time" & so on. 

 

Reproducible: Didn't try

Actual Results:  
Clean the mess manually

Expected Results:  
OK if I do not make errors

Sorry, not the right place but did not find any other specific place for that
