How do you archive, deduplicate and search e-mails offline?

2 pointsby youseecomradealmost 7 years ago

I have thousands of emails from multiple accounts. Some of them are .eml and others are entire .mbox mailboxes.<p>I would like to be able to search them and also import new emails (manually, I'm not going to connect to IMAP or anything else). It would need to ignore duplicated e-mails e.g. re-import a Google Takeout .mbox without creating complete chaos.<p>- me@example.com -- inbox -- sent -- folder1 -- folder2<p>- the-other-me@example.com -- inbox -- sent -- thingsishouldnthavesent

You can search them using Stanford's ePadd software.<p>edit: For deduplication you can use Aid4Mail, MailStore, or BitCurator.
