but then, why limit the view? Delete the duplicate message right away: 1) open mailfoder in question 2) switch to threaded view (per default the key binding is "ot") 3) delete-pattern ~= (per default the key-binding is "D~=RETURN" 4) carefully examine if the right messages are flagged with a "D" 5) expunge the messages via "sync-messages" (default key-binding in index is "$"). Done. HTH, Gregor
