4 months ago Can you tell us what the default settings are, and perhaps what exactly each option does? Thanks!
The defaults can be found in src/defaults/preferences/removedupes.js :
pref("extensions.removedupes.comparison_criteria.message_id", true);
pref("extensions.removedupes.comparison_criteria.send_time", true);
pref("extensions.removedupes.comparison_criteria.size", true);
pref("extensions.removedupes.comparison_criteria.folder", false);
pref("extensions.removedupes.comparison_criteria.subject", true);
pref("extensions.removedupes.comparison_criteria.author", true);
pref("extensions.removedupes.comparison_criteria.num_lines", false);
pref("extensions.removedupes.comparison_criteria.recipients", false);
pref("extensions.removedupes.comparison_criteria.cc_list", false);
pref("extensions.removedupes.comparison_criteria.flags", false);
pref("extensions.removedupes.comparison_criteria.body", false);but they are somewhat arbitrary (and conservative, to avoid finding false dupes). Different scenarios merit different settings.
Hello! When I first tried this add-on on a folder, it found duplicates. Then I wanted to check the settings under "Message Comparison," ticked some more boxes, and ran the add-on again on the same folder. Now it finds no duplicates in that folder. I have turned off a bunch of Message Comparison options but I'm still getting "No duplicates found" as a result. Can you tell us what the default settings are, and perhaps what exactly each option does? Thanks!
