[MlMt] duplicate messages on move to other mailbox

[Jason Davies]

ok, let's start worknig this out. More information:

1) This occurs when one machine is not running as often as when it 
isn't. So it's not a race situation.
2) Mailmate only selects a very small number (5%?) of these as 
duplicates from the menu so it thinks they are different messages. Does 
this rule out the risk aversion factor of interruption?

3) I've now verified it happens when I move the message manually and no 
rules are being applied.

You seem to say I would have to 'catch' it in the activity monitor but 
that doesn't stay at the end for than a fraction of a second.

This is making Mailmate completely unusable for me, unfortunately, as I 
rely on marking messages read for my to-do workflow. Obviously, 
duplicates that I have to remove manually destroy that as I then 
encounter another unread version...

If there's a way to track it and diagnose, I'd be grateful. I'm tempted 
to uninstall and do a fresh one (annoying but less annoying than the 
duplication!)



Cheers,

Jason
