Avoid Duplicate Email

iPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 Patch 2 (built Jul 14 2004)
libimta.so 5.2 Patch 2 (built 19:30:12, Jul 14 2004)
We have thousand over email accounts...it is possible to have same email for more than one user...
is there any way that we could avoid creating duplicate emails ?

Messaging Server automatically creates only one copy of each message per mail partition. It does this by using the filesystem "hard link" feature.
You can check this out:
If you do ls -li, you can see the inode numbers on the individual .msg files.
And even with ls -l, you can see how many links there are to a given file,
it is the number between the permissions and the owner.
And if you use find:
cd <server-root>/<msg-instance>/store/partition/primary/=user/
(or CD to wherever your partition is)
find . -type f -links +1 -ls | sort -n -k 4 -k 1
it will show you all the message files where there are more than 1 copy
of that message (could be different users with a copy of that one message
or copies of that message in multiple folders under the same user).
In this example, I asked to see only those with 3 or more "copies".
cd /usr/ip/ims/msg*/store/part*/prim*/=user
find . -type f -links +2 -ls | sort -n -k 4 -k 1

Best I can offer you, is, "don't do that".
When you send to a mailing list and to an individual at the same time, the messages do go by different routes within the server. This means that the "duplicate messages" are not really duplicates, and the server cannot throw either of them away.
This is not a defect, nor is it something you can configure around. This is done, so that under no situation will a mail be lost.
There is no work under way to prevent this, either.

How to avoid duplicate email suggestions in mail?

In my contacts, I have my dad's contact card (Johnny Appleseed) and then his nickname as "Dad". When I open up Mail on my Mac and go to email my him, I always type in "Dad" in the "TO" bar. The first three suggestions are 1) Dad (gives his home email address), 2) Johnny Appleseed (gives his home email address), and 3) Johnny Appleseed (gives his work email address). I generally email the work email address, so I have to manually select that one (instead of just hitting tab). Is there any way to not have both Dad and Johnny Appleseed (home) pop up as the first two results? They're the same person and same email, so why have it there twice?
Thanks.

Biggest apologies thought I was writing about iOS!?
Am I also wrong about that too in iOS?

Re: how to delete an email address in Mail
Jan 16, 2012 6:53 PM (in response to Helpstonharv)
It appears because your mail app remembers a history of addresses.
It cannot be deleted but I think it will disappear after a certain time.

Avoid Duplicate Tasks when Expanding Groups for Custom Task Process

Is there a way to:
Avoid Duplicate Tasks when Expanding Groups for Custom Task Process?
I've got a people metadata column that I am planning on putting groups into. I want the groups to expand and send a task for all users in the groups. I also want to avoid creating multiple tasks if a user happens to be in two groups at the same
time.
I'm trying to work out a way to assign users a read task based on job training requirements. Right now assigning groups and using a workflow task to confirm read is what I'm trying to accomplish. I just end up getting two tasks for a user if
their in multiple groups.
David Jenkins

Hi David,
Please verify the followings:
After Participants, select Parallel(all at a once)
Expand Task Options, select ‘Assign a task to each member within groups’
Open the action properties, make sure ExpandGroup is Yes
Also in SharePoint Designer ,you can edit the property for the Start Approval Porcess to enable ExpandGroup:

Thank you in Advance

Please follow basic Netiquette and post the DDL we need to answer this. Follow industry and ANSI/ISO standards in your data. You should follow ISO-11179 rules for naming data elements. You should follow ISO-8601 rules for displaying temporal data. We need
to know the data types, keys and constraints on the table. Avoid dialect in favor of ANSI/ISO Standard SQL. And you need to read and download the PDF for:
https://www.simple-talk.com/books/sql-books/119-sql-code-smells/
>> Could you please help to rewrite the below two queries (so that I can avoid duplicates) I need to send email to everyone not the duplicated ones), please? <<
This mess is not a table because it has no keys, not way to have a key. You are using UNION like we used punch card merges in the o9ld days.
What math do you do on the account_id? That is the only reason that you use numeric values Why do you think that an email is fifty characters long? Yes, most them are, but did you bother to look at the maximum length? NO! Why did you name it “Phone_List” when
it is nothing but email addresses? emails are not phones.
Please read this article so you will know why RDBMS does not use assembly language flags like you are doing.
https://www.simple-talk.com/sql/t-sql-programming/bit-of-a-problem/
It would also help if you know what normalization was. Here is one design that is valid.
CREATE TABLE Something_emails
(account_id CHAR(15) NOT NULL,
email_address VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL,
email_type CHAR(5) NOT NULL
CHECK (email_type IN ('home', 'work', 'misc')),
PRIMARY KEY (email_address, email_type)
>> In this table account_id is unique <<
No, not without the DDL you did not post.
>> email values could be NULL or repetitive for work / home / Other (same email can be used more than one columns for account_id) <<
Not a problem. Look at the primary key. Also why would anyone store invalid data in a table? SQL programmers try to keep it out!
>> a new column will be created with name as Source_flag (the value could be work, Home, Other depend on email coming from) then removes duplicates <<
More kludges! Oh, putting the comma at the front of a line is how non-SQL mimic punch cards. An SQL progtrqammer would put related subsets of columns on one line – we think in sets! After 30+ years of SQL, this is one of the code smells I use to find bad
code.

How to delete the duplicate email address in BP master data

Hi,
When you get an email ids from the third party vendor and you are loading into CRM BP master data. how to delete the duplicate email address already exits in the system. In CRM you can create the same BP with different id. I would like to know how to delete the email address during importing email addresses from the third party tool.
During the campaign you are sending email to all your customers, when the customer want to unsubscibe the email address from your list, how to unsubcribe the email address and how to updat the BP master data.
If you are sending the email to customer, you are using html or simple text, if the customer wants only html or simple text, how you to specify in the system?
thanks,
arul

Hello Arul,
welcome to the SDN CRM Development forum.
1. I think you should clear the data with duplicate E-Mail adresses in the external tool.
2. Unsubscription could be done by a Marketing Attribute which could be set by using a Target Group which is created by Campaign Automation. Have a look at this Toppic. There is also a Best Practice avaliable at http://help.sap.com/bp_crmv340/CRM_DE/index.htm.
3. Also HTML or Simple text can be mained in a Marketing Attribute. You have to use different Mail Forms to which are sent to different Target groups.

Receiving Duplicate emails on shared Mailbox

We are using Exchange Server 2007 and outlook client is Outlook 2010.
We are not using PST concepts(that is mails downloaded to local copy and remove from the Server).
one of the shared mailbox is accessed by many people and they are receiving duplicate emails frequently on the shared mailbox.
Is there any solution to stop receiving duplicate email.

Hi,
Agree with Willard. Please check if these duplicate messages have the same Message ID.
If they are sent separately, we can't stop this. If they have the same Message ID, please check whether there is corrupted rules in Outlook.
Besides, please check if there is any third party add-ins from Outlook user side. If the shared mailbox is accessed by 5 users, then we need to disable add-ins on these 5 users' Outlook client.
Best regards,

How can i find and delete duplicate emails on my mac

I use Apple Mail, Gmail and a third party email on my few Apple devices (iMac and Macbook Air both running Mavericks and iPhone 4s running current version iOS).
I would like to sort through, locate and delete duplicate emails (from several misguided approaches to Rules, Mailboxes, Smart Mailboxes, etc.)

Hi,
Presuming the Post is about the Messages app and iMessages.
If you delete them they are gone or the Mac.
An iMessages arrives and is displayed in the App.
there is a setting in the Preferences > General section about Saving on Close.
The iMessages are also stored in the chat.db items (unless deleted) and this provides the "history" when you reconnect to a contact who is not currently on display in the main window.
In Mavericks Saved Chats and the chat.db items (there are three in total) are held in different places.
The app does not work like Mail where the emails can be left on the Server and "read" by other devices.
The iMessages are pushed to the devices that then accepts them.
After that the "sync" function ends (What you do with the iMessages on one device is not seen or changed on another)

For the mailbox where you are receiving duplicates ...
Select the mailbox on the left of the Mail window.
From the Mail menu bar top of your screen click Mailbox > Rebuild
See if that helps the duplication issue.

How to avoid duplicate posting of noted items for advance payment requests?

How to avoid duplicate posting of noted items for advace payments request?

Puttasiddappa,
In the PS module, we allow the deletion of a component pruchase requisition allthough a purchase order exists. The system will send message CN707 "<i>A purchase order already exists for purchase requisition &</i>" as an Iinformation message by design to allow flexible project management.
If you, however, desire the message CN707 to be of type E you have to
modify the standard coding. Doing so, using SE91, you can invoke the
where-used-list of message 707 in message class CN, and to change the
i707(cn)
to
e707(cn)
where desired.
Also, user exit CNEX0039 provides the possibility to reject the
deletion of a component according to customers needs e. g. you may
check here whether a purchase order exists and reject the deletion.
Hope this helps!
Best regards

Duplicate Emails - Outlook 2007

Hi
We had configured Pop account in Outlook 2007 and set email remove from server after receiving to outlook. Also using BlackBerry Torch Device email. There was no problem with duplicate emails because no email on the mail server. Working both fine
( Office Outlook and BB Torch)
Now we brought BlackBerry Z10 Device. Configured email account on it. If send email from sender first receive it on the BB device and when sync with Outlook all emails deleted from mail server. After deleting mail server it automatically delete from BB device.
In short we are in trouble in both side. If set delete email after receiving in outlook then unable to see on BB. If want to see all emails on BB need to keep leave copy in outlook and duplicate emails receive problem. it's duplicate email issue
is occur suddenly it may come after 2 months Or 6 months.
Is there any connection with size of pst file for duplicate emails? Is there connection with location of pst file ( C:\........ OR different)?
Please guide us for that we need to do.
Thanks & Regards,
Suhas

Hi,
Based on the description, if you receive emails on Outlook first, since the emails are removed from the server, you are not able to see the emails on your BlackBerry device. If you receive emails on your BlackBerry device first, you encounter the "Duplicate
emails" issue.
Is my understanding correct?
Please kindly detail what it means by "Duplicate emails", does it mean you receive two same messages on the BlackBerry device?
Try to re-setup the account on your BlackBerry device and test if you still get duplicate emails.
If your ISP provides IMAP protocol, we suggest you setup the account via IMAP, which keeps the emails synced on all of your devices.
For further support about your BlackBerry device, please contact BlackBerry support:
http://worldwide.blackberry.com/gettingstarted/?CPID=OTC-GETSTARTED
Regards.
