Hi Jakub,

Check what message-IDs imported duplicates have (table email > column message_id). It could be that your SMTP (or maybe IMAP?) changes message IDs and Espo can't detect that it's a duplicate. Espo checks duplicates only by message-ID.

**yuri** · 11-09-2022, 08:05 AM

There will be the ability to bind a custom implementation of the duplicate finder in the next version.

**yuri** · 11-09-2022, 08:26 AM

Likely, that SMTP adds a header with an original message-ID (Microsoft adds X-Microsoft-Original-Message-ID header). The idea is to check this ID too.

PHP Code:


    public function find(Email $email, Message $message): ?Email
    {
        $messageIds = [];

        if ($email->getMessageId()) {
            $messageIds[] = $email->getMessageId();
        }

        if ($message->getHeader('X-Microsoft-Original-Message-ID')) {
            $messageIds[] = $message->getHeader('X-Microsoft-Original-Message-ID');
        }

        if ($messageIds === []) {
            return null;    
        }

        return $this->entityManager
            ->getRDBRepositoryByClass(Email::class)
            ->select(['id', 'status'])
            ->where([
                'messageId' => $messageIds,
            ])
            ->findOne();
    }

But this will be possible only in v7.3.

**Jakub Grufik** · 11-09-2022, 09:10 AM

Hello,
yeah both emails have different message_id.

I am not sure if I understand correctly, but at the moment we are not able to fix this unless the email provider stops changing the ids of the message(that is probably not going to happen), correct?

**yuri** · 11-09-2022, 09:20 AM

Correct. Without making modifications to code (that won't work after upgrade) there's no way. But as of v7.3 there's a way. Can you check a message original (raw contents of an email) of any of such emails (in any email client or web interface of your mail provider). Whether it contains an original message ID header.

**Jakub Grufik** · 11-10-2022, 09:59 AM

Hey yuri thanks a lot for the explanation and information.

Will pass this info to our email administrator to find out what could be done about this behavior.

Have a nice day sir!

**Jakub Grufik** · 04-04-2023, 07:04 AM

Hello guys, I would like to re-open this topic as our system is still being overloaded by duplicates of every single email sent within CRM.

If it goes from outlook or Gmail etc. to CRM there is no duplicate. But when we send an email from CRM to CRM (internally), a duplicate with the status "Archived" is created every single time.

Is there already any way how to solve this behavior, please?

Thanks a lot

**yuri** · 04-04-2023, 07:33 AM

Can you provide an email original (raw content) of a duplicate email?

Looks like your SMTP is changing the message ID. Maybe the original message-ID is preserved in some header.

**Jakub Grufik** · 04-04-2023, 07:51 AM

Yes, seems like smtp is changing the message id:

I am sending this just to provide some info until I will be able to get the raw content of the archived email (still trying to manage where to get it as this email is not being stored on the email server). It is present only in CRM.

**yuri** · 04-04-2023, 07:58 AM

Original is not stored in CRM.

**yuri** · 04-04-2023, 09:43 AM

You can send an email from CRM to your personal Gmail/Outlook/any_other account. And get the original from there.

**Jakub Grufik** · 04-04-2023, 11:16 AM

Got it yuri

Here is the raw content of the original email:

Not good. This would be tricky to distinguish from a legit reply email. As the references header is supposed to contain the ID of the email the current email is replied to.

**Jakub Grufik** · 04-21-2023, 07:22 AM

Hello guys, can someone help me to solve this issue, please? We have a looot of unnecessary emails in our system and basically, everything is being duplicated with status "Archived".

I dont think this is caused by the fact that amazon is changing the ID of the message. In that case it would duplicate everything with status "Sent" or not? One email has status "Sent" and the duplicate has status "Archived". Why is this happening please

Our system is srsly overloaded with emails atm.
