Does Excell have a built in feature that can find, alert or highlight
duplicate email addresses from of master email files?

If not, can anyone recommend a software program that can filter duplication
from an Excel file list?

Let's say your data is in A1:A100. Select A1:A100 and click
Format/Conditional Formatting

Formula Is: =COUNTIF($A$1:$A1,$A1)1

then select whatever format you want. Modify as needed.

Although if your intent is to delete the duplicates, you might cosider
putting the formula in an adjacent column, then use Autofilter to filter for
values 1 and deleting them.

Just be sure to back up your data (unless you intend to use the email
addresses for spam - then don't back up your data).
