Description : find and delete duplicated mails in a Maildir
This program searches a set of mail folders for duplicated mails. Those
are notorious when you receive the same notification via different ways,
get mails crossposted to multiple mailing lists, etc. Detection is done
by coercing a subset of headers into a canonical form and taking a hash.
As protection against false positives, message bodies of candidate
duplicates are diffed as well, rejecting those that don't look similar
enough. This should avoid most decoration from mailing lists.
.
Only the Maildir format is supported.
