Mass-merging user accounts - how?

Hi everybody,

For reasons that are too complex to describe here, we have a large number of forum accounts that share e-mail addresses (mostly in pairs of two). We need to resolve this for a planned forum upgrade that requires every account to have a unique email address.

We now want to batch-merge these "twin accounts" according to certain criteria, so that for example the account with the higher post count (or the more recent "last activity" date) absorbs the posts of the other account, which then gets deleted.

The existing merge function obviously doesn't help here. Any hint on how to solve this would be very appreciated!

Best, Tobias
