Hi funyscribe,

Unfortunately, there aren't as many options for removing duplicate
emails in Outlook Express as there are for Outlook and the one for OE
will set you back $19.95.
The good news is, a similar program 
http://www.oehelp.com/DBXtend/Default.aspx  used to be the only
solution for OE and it cost $30.00, so you are a bit better off than
you would've been earlier.

OEX: $19.95
"OEX is a complimentary program to Microsoft®'s Outlook Express (OE)
that provides enhanced message processing features not present in OE.
Such features can allow the user to synchronize message stores between
computers and maximize the efficiency of their email message data.
These features include:
            * Removing duplicate messages
            * Importing messages from other dbx files or eml files
            * Removing attachments from messages
            * Saving attachments from messages
            * Converting messages to Plain Text only
            * Exporting messages as eml files
            * Saving lists of messages in folders
            * Sending messages again
            * Editing sent messages to send again
One can remove all duplicate messages from a folder. The duplicates
then are transferred to the Deleted Items folder and subsequently must
be removed from there."

I hope this helps. If you have any questions, please post a
clarification request *before* closing/rating my answer and I'll be
happy to reply.

Thank you,

Ive looked at the two programs and am curious the difference between
the two.  I know the OEX only works with Outlook Express, but does the
30 dollar one work with both Outlook and Outlook Express?

Hi funyscribe,

As far as I know, DBXtend is for OE only. DBXtend is an old program
and hasn't been updated since 2003. It's still available but he's kept
the old price of $30.00 on it. OEX was released in 2005 and it's what
I would recommend using now. Just because DBXtend costs more, doesn't
mean it is better, it's just an old program with an old price.

DBXtend
Version 1.70 Updated 11/11/03

REVISION HISTORY OEX
Version 1.00 Released 02/09/05 

Please let me know if you have any other questions.
