HI @Milo_Soderberg

How to identify the duplicate mails do you have any Key word in the subject like that.

Hi Gokul001

Not really. I have three categories. SEABN, SECAN and SEDEP. But i cant see that those can be used to filter duplicates.

i assume that the subjectline is easiest to use to filter duplicate emails.

Hi @Milo_Soderberg

You can check if the email object has an id that is unique, this works on GMail messages, I am not sure for Outlook Messages.

Hi @Milo_Soderberg ,

Could you Check with the below Expression to Filter out the Emails based on Duplicate Subjects :

The below is to be performed after receiving the mails.

mailMessages = mailMessages.GroupBy(Function(x)x.Subject).Select(Function(x)x.First).ToList

Where mailMessages is a variable of type List(Of MailMessage)
