Bug Description

Evolution has associated with it a number of useful plugins in the evolution-plugins package. A significant absence is a plugin to remove duplicates in mail folders.

This plugin exists but has never been packaged with ubuntu, resulting in significant confusion for a large number of users of the plugin each time evolution is upgraded and quite a large number of queries about where such a functionality might be found (more than 4.5M hits on google for "remove duplicate evolution").

License: GPLv2
Notes: Four versions exist at the above location all below v0.0.5, however I have not had any stability issue with this plugin.
