I can describe what one CF person did in a matter where it was stated that de-dupe was needed.
They de-duped by message number; I'll elaborate a bit.
Many times messages are listed as Message 01 or Message 001. This person thought that they could just take the first Message 001, and delete all other Message 001's. What difference would it make? There were numerous email addresses, each one having a Message 001. PST's, AOL, Pop 3, it was all there.
Sad day for one side when a CF person is making statements that they've dug their hoof in the ground on, when there are up to 10x more emails than they have missed because of a poorly thought out de-dupe, which spelled the case out in black and white.
