In one installation we are using sieve "redirect :copy" to create copy of the 
incoming email (local boss gets copy of its employees mails).
There is a problem when the incoming email has multiple To/CC entries with local users. 
Multiple copy/redirects are created (one for each employee) and there are multiple copies 
in "boss" account.
Could this instead be implemented by MTA as automatic bcc: boss of all incoming 
mails?
Unfortunately no. The employee/boss structure is quite complicated. Some employees have multiple 
"bosses", there are also some "project" emails when the structure is even more 
complicated.
We are using dedicated sieve_before script for each user based on %u variable.
Well, it would be possible to build a doveadm script that deletes the 
duplicates after delivery, but currently there's no implementation to avoid 
delivering duplicate Message-IDs in the first place.

I don't really like such a Message-ID-based deduplication feature enabled by 
default, but something like this could be nice:

fileinto :copy :x-deduplicate "boss";

Anyway, probably not going to be implemented anytime soon.
Maybe there is a way to use a procmail with something like this:

:0 Wh: msgid.lock
| formail -D 8192 .msgid.cache

But is there a safe way to use it together with sieve? Using Pigeonhole Sieve Pipe Plugin?
