This one served me well when experimenting with folder-hooks (mutt-list
had 26000 mails after some testing ;-)
I have the following as a bash-script:
---
formail -q -D 12000 idcache < $1 -s > $1.bk
mv $1.bk $1
rm idcache 2> /dev/null
---
I named it remdup, so "remdup ~/Mail/mutt-users" would delete all
duplicates from the mutt-folder.
