removedupes not removing dupes

[phazell]

Thunderbird status bar says selected duplicated messages are being moved to Trash, but they remain in original folders. Error console has one removedupes entry, which does not seem directly related:

Interesting... the extension should not be looking for dupes in the trash folder. And even if it were looking there - these errors are weird.

Can you try compacting your mail folders? Or clearing the trash? Or - if your dupes are in the trash - moving them to a different (local) folder and trying the dupe removal there?

It is finding them in the trash because I allow it to search special folders. Strangely, now I cannot delete anything, even using the delete button. It seems that something is interdicting control of my Tbird, and its effect on your app is symptomatic. If/when I figure it out, I'll let you know, so that maybe you can guard against it in future iterations.
