Newbie question about notmuch and gmail

[rey-coyrehourcq]

Hi guys,

First thanks you a lot for developping such tools, people like me rediscover
email management after some year of gmail, 
and i'm really happy to found great tools like notmuch to help me on this hard
task to extract and manage tons of emails out from gmail. 

I first migrate all of my emails from gmail using to mailfence provider using
the great imapsync tool. I also migrate the special "[Gmail]/all mail" folders,
but now i think this is a mistake because i have duplicate messages.
Secondly, i sync on a local folder all emails from mailfence imap to local
folder on my disk using mbsync.

Now, i want to use notmuch ☺ to manage this email, and i have some questions :

- Actually i have a lot of imap folders, and i want to flatten them to adopt the
tag management of notmuch. If i use as many tag as folder to tag messages on mailfence, then after that i remove imap folder, is there a way to get and sync this imap remote tag using notmuch ?

- Is there a way to mark duplicate messages (before deletion) easily using
notmuch ?
