Hey Timo,

2 questions on this new 'deduplicate' capability of doveadm...

Obviously this could be scripted with a cron job, but I was wondering if 
it wouldn't make sense to do this automatically whenever messages are 
being moved around in the mailstore?

An interesting 'feature' of gmail is that if/when you are copying lots 
of messages from a non gmail account to a gmail account through IMAP, if 
the folder you are copying from contains duplicate messages, gmail will 
silently discard the duplicates after the first one is successfully 
copied up...

I discovered this a long time ago the first time I encountered an 
anomaly where I copied an entire folder, but the number of messages on 
the gmail account didn't match the number in the source folder. After 
comparing, I discovered that there were duplicates in the source folder, 
which accounted for the discrepancy.

Thanks,
