Delete duplicate emails by Mozilla Thunderbird Earlier we had shared the way to delete duplicate emails in Outlook and now here is the way to remove duplicate emails in Thunderbird.

For example, Gmail provides ~7GB of space to free accounts and if you want to have more space, you need to pay $50 per year to take Google Apps premium service. Are you having lot many duplicate emails in your webmail service like Gmail, AOL, Hotmail or custom domain webmail? As these services give your limited amount of memory storage for free and charge for extra space, that’s why it is recommended to keep cleaning your Inbox.
