	Hi,
not much idea from my side, IMAP is rock-solid about duplicates here
(aka I do not face any duplicates). It can be about the server too, but
it depends. Do you use Quick Resync? There's an option for it.

You can try to figure out how much duplicates they are, aka whether
they are truly identical, when you save them as an MBOX file and
compare them (diff -u mbox1 mbox2).

You can also add a UID column into the message list, those messages
should have different UID, in which case they are "physically" on the
server.

You can try to remove corresponding ~/.cache/evolution/mail/<account>/
directory to start from scratch, in case it's anything about broken
content there, but I doubt it's it. It will index the content again,
which can take a long time, depending on the size of the
account/folders.

	Bye,
	Milan
