[imapfilter-devel] Copied and moved messages flagged "\Seen" on receiving server

[Lefteris Chatzimparmpas]

Hello,

The \Seen flag is supposed to be cleared by the client, so some client
must remove it at some point in your case, or the server implementation
is not according to the standard.

I suggest that you change your imapfilter config file, in order to check
the flags of the messages (or just check whether they are unseen),
before and after performing the rest of the actions.

I believe imapfilter should not change them unless you set it to do
that.  If that true, then something in the rest of the setup you have
must be causing this...
