Two columns:

- A lookup column to create an array from your email column
- Then use the [Unique Elements](https://www.glideapps.com/plugins/uniq) plugin to extract the unique items

If you need something that you can use in a choice component or an inline list, then you need to coerce the array into a list. Use the “Miracle Method” for that.
