They stay one lead and get one email. MeetDrop matches them by email address and tells you before you save that you have met them before. Today's conversation joins their history. If the first email has not gone yet, it is rewritten to cover both conversations; if it already went, nothing is sent again. If they have already replied, you choose: start a new sequence, or don't email.
It tells you before you save
Capture them the way you always do: the card, then a voice note. If the email address on the card belongs to someone you have already captured, MeetDrop says so before you save, so you are never surprised later by two records for one person.
What happens to the email
Why it matches on the email address
Names repeat and get misheard; a company has many people at one show. The email address is the one thing that is the same person every time, so that is what decides whether two captures are one lead.
The same rules apply when you drop in a list after the show: someone already on your leads from that show is merged, not added twice. Importing a list after a show.
Unlimited leads free, no card. Capture everyone; it keeps them straight.
