TB 115.15.0: after mail imports - doesn´t work in any folder #231

Had to reinstall TB on a new machine and accidentially imported the mails twice. Not working at all, just straight comes up with "No duplicate mails found."

You are likely comparing using overly stringent criteria. Sometimes TB adds an extra line of whitespace; or you're using the message flags for comparison, with some messages being read while others aren't; etc.

Relax the criteria until you find dupes, then slowly decide how to tighten them again.

Thx for the hint, @eyalroz . Compared the messages and indeed, the size differs and it seems to be the whitespace problem you referred to. Problem solved!
