Very many thanks for taking the trouble to try and help me. I visited the site 
and read the relevant pages. 

Maybe I should have explained that, unlike most on this mailing list, I have a 
minimal knowledge of what goes on in the box underneath my desk. For me is 
it is simply a tool in the same way as my car is and I have no knowledge of 
programming or scriptwriting. No doubt if I applied myself for a few days I 
could master at least the basics but I could sort the addresses in the sent mail 
folder completely  manually in a significantly shorter time. 

It really seems to me to be rather ironic that there is no way for me to extract 
a list of addresses and remove the duplicates, other than by using paper and 
pencil, unless I learn a programming language...
