One of the most daunting task for me was to remove duplicate emails in my Outlook. I had stacked up email marked as important in multiple PSTs. Instead of deleting the duplicates right away I deferred it with a plan that I will delete the duplicates whenever I will get some free time, and that never happens. And the situation is quite worse on Monday when I have lots of emails with its share of duplicates as well. And due to Outlook rules and my email id in multiple distribution lists, I end up receiving lots of duplicate emails and these mails moves to different PSTs.
I was looking for software to remove duplicate emails in Outlook and found some crap sharewares with prohibitive price and poor functionality. I found one and I was compelled to share this with everyone. With Outlook Duplicate Items Remover 1.4.2 (ODIR) it is matter of few seconds to remove all duplicates. ODIR removes duplicates from Contacts; Calendar; Tasks; Notes and Email folders.
The software is of only 2.11 MB and installation is breeze. You need to close Outlook before the installation. Once installed the menu item is visible in the menu bar from where it can be activated.
Using ODIR is very easy: select a folder and click the button Remove Duplicate Items.
ODIR scans the selected folder for duplicates and MOVES all duplicates found to a subfolder ODIR_duplicate items.
It not only deletes the duplicate emails but also duplicate contacts, tasks, appointments and posts as well. Sweet, isn't it. Give it a try and let me know your feedback. And please share anything similar like this. Please download it from here.
