I began using Eudora about 30 years ago and have missed it terribly. Hermes may be the answer!
I have about 20 years' worth of e-mail messages (tens of thousands) and attachments from a variety of POP accounts that I've stored on external drives and cloud spaces. I need to organize everything and create digital resources useful to researchers at family and local history archives. I have discovered programs and bespoke executable scripts don't work exactly right.
The Mac version of Eudora had a duplicate message deletion function, but the Windows version didn't have it. I don't have a Mac. Does Hermes have a deduplication feature?
If someone has discovered an alternative method for this function, I'd be grateful for the recommendation.
I look forward to diving into Hermes!

From the code base, I'm guessing this software is no longer maintained (abandoned?).
the Python mailbox and mail modules would allow this
And other tasks
