--- Comment #3 from Daniel Vrátil <dvratil at kde.org> ---
See my comment on bug 389607. The "duplicates" refer to Remote IDs in the
database (which in case of maildir happen to be filenames), not to actual
messages in the backend.

If the situation happens that there are two records in the Akonadi database
that have identical RID, the only case when we could automatically delete one
or the other would be if we could be sure that both records are absolutely
identical (not just in the metadata but also in the payload). In most
situations I've seen there actually was a difference between the items with the
same RID and in that case, which one to keep?

I'll keep this opened for the "Should fix it" part, but note that most of what
you describe below is wrong (based on wrong assumption of what the message
implies - which goes back to bug 389607 of course :-)
