Duplicate emails

FWIW I have not yet seen this in my very limited testing of what's presumably the latest PIM release on KaOS.

Are those exact copies or do the 2 copies have a subtle difference somewhere in the headers or other metadata? Duplicates could arise from something as "stupid" as a least-significant-bit rounding difference in a timestamp, for instance.

Presuming this happens with IMAP it would undoubtedly be interesting to see what happens on a local server, where you have physical access to the files that contain the account's IMAP folders. 

OTOH it's probably possible to dump the raw messages with a database command, bypassing akonadi.
