Have you tried exporting the folder to a PST, temporarily moving the = contents to a TEMP folder and then importing the PST and choosing "do = not import duplicates"? If it works you would then delete the TEMP = folder and contents. -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On = Behalf Of Robert Carneal Sent: Thursday, July 29, 2004 12:35 AM To: mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [mso] Outlook XP, delete duplicates? I have a folder in Outlook XP that contains many, many exact duplicate email due to a bad filter scheme. Is there an easy way to delete only the duplicates without doing it manually? Thank you.
