That costs money. Here is the free way:

1. Install Mozilla Thunderbird
2. Create an account and import your OE messages
3. Get the Remove Duplicates extension from:

https://addons.mozilla.org/extension...derbird&id=956
4. Use it - it's easy
5. Install "IMAPSize" from: http://www.broobles.com/imapsize/
6. In IMAPSize, choose "Tools-mbox2eml" and do the obvious
7. Drag all the seperate messages from the folder, into a seperate OE folder

Done! It's up to you how you want to delete the old ones, and copy the new
ones into the right folder.

Sorry, I don't understand your question.

Pretty well straightforward question, you import the messages into
Thunderbird, then remove the duplicates. Now you've got them in Thunderbird
and you need to get them back into OE. How?

Steps 5,6 & 7.

In IMAPSize, you select "Tools--mbox2eml", then give it the location of
your Thunderbird mail folders (you'll have to specify *.* in the file type to
see them), then select a folder for outputting the .EML files. When it's
finished, just drag the EML files into a folder in Outlook Express, and it
will import them automatically.

When I tested this earlier it failed miserably.
