+This works, in so much as it doesn't allow the deranged behaviour.\r
+\r
+Consequentially, --duplicate seems a bit useless. Unless I feed it a\r
+single id: as an argument (in which case I could use --output=files), I\r
+have to figure out which of the files output are duplicates of each\r
+other and which are from different messages. How is that useful?\r
