For example I do sort and tidy up my collected addresses in lbdb like the following: # let lbdbq filter all duplicates: lbdbq > m_inmail.list.filteredByLbdbq # sort by TAB delimiter according to first and second field, ignoring # the third one and remove duplicates sort -k1,1 -k2,2 -t$'\t' --stable --unique m_inmail.list > m_inmail.list.sorted # extract first column only (email addresses) cut -f1 m_inmail.list.sorted > uppercase.txt # convert them to lowercase tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]' < uppercase.txt > lowercase.txt # and check for duplicates uniq -d lowercase.txt
