Duplicate alarm e-mails

Hello again: I have setup ZfS to generate e-mail for major
and critical alarms. The alarms are generating e-mail
notifications as designed, however, I am getting duplicate
e-mail for each alarm.
Can someone enlighten me? Thanks, Chris.

For some reason there are settings for generic traps. These
generic traps are generating the second email.
Chris.

How to remove duplicate emails in Mail

Does anyone know if a good app that works in Lion that will help me remove duplicate emails in Mail? There are some options on the web that I've found but they don't seem to work with Lion.

I have found a very satisfactory solution to eliminating my duplicates in Apple Mail, which is to stop using it and switch to Thunderbird.
There's lots that I like better in Apple Mail, but Thunderbird is light-years more flexible in managing your email than is Apple Mail, because Thunderbird is an open platform with excellent Add-ons available, which include the nifty Remove Duplicate Messages: http://bit.ly/tbird-dups. It is stupid that Apple Mail hides duplicate messages in the background & won't allow users to search and destroy them. Frustrating!
As a prologue to that, you need the TB import export Add-on: http://bit.ly/tbirdimportexport
Managing my mail locally on my Mac was a huge project for me, involving integrating tens of thousands of emails. Mail was from gmail, yahoo, and many years of Outlook PST files.
Now that the project is complete, I'm very happy with Thunderbird to manage my email archives. Though I actually would prefer the Lion Apple Mail interface for day to day use, it just isn't flexible enough.

Why have I got duplicate mailboxes in Mail (Mac OS X 10.7.2)? Why can't I delete them?

Ever since installing Mac OS X 10.7 I have been plagued by duplicate mailboxes in Mail.app. Does anyone know why this could be? I also cannot delete them — Mail just freezes and I have to Quit and relaunch. Any help gratefully received. TIA.

Same problem - Mail at some point decided to create, like, Inbox and Inbox-2, in various accounts. Same with Sent Mail and other maiboxes within a given account (I have four--and they worked just fine in Snow Leopard.)
Of course, I am also using POP mail--but that can't be the problem, POP configures just fine and there's no problem with Send or Receive.
Just .. why the duplicate Inbox, for example. I tried importing them and sorting into just plain Inbox for the account--but no. Mail instantly re-creates the dupe folder.
Which makes some mail not show up, of course, in the Mail window--it's in a different mailbox!

HT5361 Is there a way to find and erase duplicate emails in mail.app?

Is there a way to find and erase duplicate emails in mail.app?

Mail.app does not have this possiblility acc. to Apple. There are Scripts but not provided by Apple.
A solution can be to use third party software but I prefer Apples own software so have to wait until there is an update.

Duplicate accounts in Mail, Contact and Calendar

I found that I have duplicate accounts in Mail, Contacts and Calendar. When I try to delete them from within those apps, System Preferences - iCloud is launched. Within iCloud there are no duplicates, so there is nothing to delete. How do I delete the duplicates in the individual apps?

Well, it looks like you’ll have to do some kind of Reset Sync Data in System Preferences > .Mac > Advanced, e.g. from the .Mac server to the PowerBook, maybe after quitting Mail and moving com.apple.mail.plist out of ~/Library/Preferences/...

How to remove duplicate messages from Mail in Mavericks (POP)

Hello
I'm having some significant problems with Apple Mail, and despite having researched widely, I haven't been able to find a solution yet. Here is my tale of woe...
My set up is that I use Mail with 5 separate accounts, downloading all messages using POP. I keep all my mail so that I have a permanent record of all conversations, going back more than 10 years - this is about 250,000 emails. I'm running the latest version of Mavericks on a 2010 MBP. I have no intention of moving to IMAP - I need to keep a local archive of all my mail.
A few months ago I was having problems with Mail being very slow to load and search emails. I decided to rebuild the mailboxes, but afterwards discovered that thousands of messages in the inbox of one of my accounts (and some of the sub-folders) had disappeared. Once I realised I tried to go back to a recent Time Machine back up, but, for whatever reason, that part of the back up hadn't worked properly and I was unable to recover the previous status. Ileft it while I decided what to do, and had time to deal with it.
The last 2 years worth of emails on that account were still archived on gmail, so last week I decided to try redownloading the whole lot (something like 72,000 messages), and then uplanned to use one of the scripts I was aware of to remove the duplicates to the trash, and then remove any duplicates in the trash forever. That ought to mean I at least had an archive of the last two years of missing messages, even if I had no record of which ones had been flagged or replied to, etc.
The downloading took about 24 hours to complete, and I now have almost 70,000 messages in the inbox of that account. However, I hadn't figured on two things:
1. Mail 'hides' duplicate messages, meaning that all of the messages I've downloaded are showing as unread, and I can't differentiate the ones I already had in my Inbox, and the new downloads. When I click on those apparently unread messages I can see if they have been replied to or forwarded, etc, but there's no obvious way for me to remove the ones I have already dealt with to the trash, without going through them all manually, which is clearly impossible.
2. The scripts I'd found for removing duplicates don't work. Andreas Amann's Remove Duplicates script doesn't work under Mavericks, and he has abandoned the project. I've also tried the remove-duplicate-messages.scpt made by Jolly Roger (http://jollyroger.kicks-***.org/software/), and while it *sometimes* works on individual subfolders on my Mac (but as far as I can tell removes the duplicate in that folder, rather than the newly downloaded version), mostly it doesn't work at all - it creates a 'Remove Duplicate Messages' folder on my desktop, a log inside it and a folder for removed messages, but nothing appears in the duplicates folder.
So, I'm left in a position where I have 70,000 apparently unread messages in my Inbox, a massively bloated Mail library (which has pretty much doubled in size), a slow and unresponsive Mail program. I figure I have a number of options. Either I could abandon the last week's efforts and revert to the version of

TS3276 Duplicate messages in mail

I get messages left in my drafts folder, but they also show in my sent folder. How can I keep from getting these duplicates? Or what am I doing that causes them? Doesn't happen for everything. Also happens in 10.7

Is it a POP account? If so, then the MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3 file has perhaps gotten corrupted. If you purge it (Home/Library/Mail/MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3) then all messages remaining on the POP server will once more be downloaded, but for the last time.
If you have had this account through earlier versions of OSX (pre-Leopard) then remove any files of that similar name that are leftovers, usually in the POP account folder itself.

How to get rid of duplicate copies of Mail in inbox?

Hi,
Actually, I have two separate questions that both relate to Mail version 1.3.11 running on an I Mac G5 using 10.3.9. I had Total Access which is earthlink.net's software configure this program, Mail, when I recently upgraded to DSL with them. Now, I'm getting duplicate copies of email in my Mail program. I may have accidentally chosen something which I now can't locate in Total Access. Does anyone have a clue as to how I could go back to just getting one email rather than duplicate copies?
The other question is: is there any incompatibility between this version of Mail and DSL? I know that may sound odd, but we're having intermittent service and think it's probably a routing problem. However, I notice at times when I want to go on the internet and check the mail, the Mail app freezes and I have to perform a force quit. Then when I want to go to google say, my connection is gone. It's not gone for good, but it makes me wonder if there's some glitch between the Mail program and Total Access. I've asked Earthlink.net and they say "no," but I'm asking all of you because I'm not convinced.
Thanks so much for your help!

How do I delete duplicate emails in Mail 6.2?

I imported emails from thunderbird, realising I have hundreds of duplicates. Have you any idea how to remove duplicates in Mail 6.2? I tried Mail Scripts but they are not working with Mac OS 10.8.
Thanks!

Are the duplicates in the same directory? One way to do this would be to use a UNIX shell script, which could compare each of the email files, identify duplicates and delete them.
If you are feeling adventurous, there is a thread in a forum (http://forums.devshed.com/unix-help-35/bash-script-to-find-and-get-rid-of-duplic ate-files-184849.html) that has a pretty interesting looking script at the end. It does and md5 sum on each file (which should always be the same for identical emails), and then deletes the second file. (Actually the deleteing bit is commented out, it just prints what it would do if you remove the '#' before the "rm".
The principle looks good - but I cannot vouch for it at all!
Cheers,
Rodney
p.s. PLEASE back up before trying anything.

How do I keep duplicate messages in Mail and Gmail?

For the past few years messages would appear in both my Mail and Gmail inboxes. If I deleted a message in Gmail, the duplicate would REMAIN in Mail. Therefore, I could keep some messages in my gmail account that pertained to work and delete their duplicates in Mail (since I wouldn't need them at home). Likewise, I could keep some messages organized in my Mail folders and delete their counterparts in the Gmail account.
At some point I must've downloaded an update or something because the accounts are now totally synced. If I delete a message in my Gmail inbox (or even move it to a Gmail folder), it vanishes from my Mail inbox.
I know this is how most people like these programs to work together, but is there a way to revert it back to the way it was? I tried toggling off POP, then testing it (didn't work). Then I toggled off IMAP (still didn't work). Then I toggled both of them off (still didn't work). My Mail account is listed as IMAP for what it's worth.

Duplicate Email Messages Mail 4.3

Greetings,
I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.4 and using the built-in Mac Mail client 4.3. I subscribe to MobileMe and have my primary mail alias and second mail alias. I use server based rules to manage my inbox.
For the past few weeks, I've been getting duplicate email messages in my inbox.
I have googled this and most of the articles that come back are dated.
Has any one else experienced this?
It has been working fine for months.
I have tried rebuilding my mailbox and have not noticed a difference.
Thank-you,
Derrick

This problem just started-up for me, too. Same Mac mail client; Snow Leopard. I have no rules set. I have two imap accounts feeding the client; only one is misbehaving with the duplicate generation. Need a solution!

Sending Duplicate emails using Mail and mBox for mac

I have been sending duplicate emails inadvertantly recently. It seems it's when I use mBox for mac (registered copy) in Mail to use my Hotmail with IMAP.
I hadn't noticed it at first, but now I see everytime I send a mail I get 2 copies in my sent box. I can turn off the store sent messages on server option to fix it (but that's the whole point of having IMAP!!), or I can turn off mBox for mac and it also seems to work (but then I can't use IMAP!).    I've also tried on the same machine from gmail, and iCloud accounts (MobileMe), and I had no issue at all. I've also tried 2 different Hotmail accounts, and both of them send double messages every time I send.
I've searched for a loooooong time, and can't find anyone with a similar issue - but surely I'm not the only one? I think anyone still using a hotmail account will eventually install something like mBox for mac if they've gone Mac recently - as I have.
I checked the mail headers of the 2 mails, and they are quite different (masked where appropriate) -

I'm surprised I can't find anyone else with a similar issue. I've submitted a support ticket with mBox/fluent factory, but I'm still not convinced it's their issue, and possibly a Mail on Mac issue.
Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks for your help!

@ Kokola
Great staff!!! MBox Fluent Factory is very poor app.
I was having problem with duplicated sent emails and cleaning up my inbox, sent items and deleting emails. Try to contact them via email for over 3 months and never got a reply!
I just used the suggested configuration and my Entourage (email app for MAC) is working perfetcly. I can visualise all my online folders now!
Thank you so much!
mBox never addressed the issue and the duplicated emails reached new levels of annoyance but the good thing is that Hotmail and Outlook.com finally rolled out support for IMAP.
Incoming Mail Server: imap-mail.outlook.com
Outgoing Mail Server: smtp-mail.outlook.com
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/outlook/send-receive-from-app
No more duplication issues once you switch over, and no need for a third party (mBox)software to bridge the missing feature gap.

Duplicate emails in Mail with gmail

Hi, I keep getting multiple duplicate emails in my inbox. Even the one's I've deleted keep coming back. They appear across my folders and it's really frustrating as I'm unable to stop it. I've checked the discussions but cannot see an obvious solution (unless I'm looking in the wrong place) other than to disable my POP account in gmail settings, which I've done. Can anyone offer any help please?
