I found it very helpful when I made a mistake with a custom filter I use
to remove the footer at <https://yhetil.org/notmuch>.  The footer used
by the list changed at some point.  I updated the filter and restarted
-watch without thinking about what would happen with the messages that
were already in the maildir.  (I keep messages around for ~10 days
before deleting them.)  That led to a good number of duplicates.

Aside from that, I've run it a few times over the inboxes at
<https://yhetil.org>, and it's turned up a couple of hits.  So, I've
found it useful, but in the hosting context.
