Merging the messages is fine and actually an improvement over other
MUAs. But adding a line in the header section indicating the source
and how often the message appears in the source would be nice. Like

Sources: maildir://bla/blu (2), maildir://foo/bar (1)

Also if you display the message in the raw form (V key in sup), then
all the copies could be shown in full. This would help diagnosing
why you receive duplicates of certain messages.
