Hello Carlos!

Saturday April 16 2022 17:17, you wrote to me:

Is there any tool/script that can detect (and if possible,
remove) dupe messages in a messagebase? (JAM, Squish, ...)

You bbs system should be doing that as it tosses new messages.

My tosser is doing it very well. I ask on behalf of a fellow sysop
that didn't have dupe checking enabled and got a bunch of old dupe
msgs that normally would have been discarded.

(I can think of some ways of doing it without such a tool, but would
not be useful for a BBS with users as lastread pointers would be
lost.)

That is a different and difficult problem to resolve and I don't have a answer.
