Hi,
One of our users created an Email Rule in OS X Mail that ended up duplicating a heap of emails.
I'm talking thousands of emails, Gigs and Gigs of worth. 
Can anyone suggest the best way to remove duplicated emails in bulk?
We have access to OS X or Windows systems.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated, thanks.

Hi Brett,
There are a few ways to do this:
1. Through WebMail and slowing deleting these manually. This is the safest way to do it but is also the logest as you can only do a maximum of 200 items at a time through old webmail.
2. Through Apple Mail, but only delete a couple 100 at a time other wise Apple Mail can cause duplications as well which would add to the issue.
3. Outlook on a Windows machine can use a piece of software that can remove duplicates pretty safely (http://www.vaita.com/odir.asp). I have had many customers use this and have not had anyone come back to us with an issue, however because this is not a Kerio piece of software we cannot guarentee how it will function with your Kerio server.
I hope this helps you out a little,
Vicky

Vicky,
In your experience with Outlook Duplicate Items Remover, can it handle a folder with ~10k in duplicated messages? I've got a few public folders, which are now offline, with that many messages and need to fix them so I can bring them back online.
I've tried several Thunderbird extensions for this task and all, while correctly flagging the duplicates, fail during the cleanup process.
Thanks.
Cheers,
Jon
