           Summary: kmail2 importing process doesn't correctly detect
                    read/unread status flag
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.7
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: rossi.f at inwind.it


Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.3) 
OS:                Linux

I'm migrating from kmail1 to kmail2 trying to import the maildir with the
provided tool kmailCVT. As stated in #133210 kmail1 stores the read/unread
status in its indexes files for speed reasons and it doesn't keep updated the
mail files. The import procedure reads only the plain mail files so the status
is wrong not considering the indexes! 

I guess the result is similar for the other flags.

Considering that the data is produced by kmail1, this is a bad problem because
kmail2 can't read correctly its predecessor files.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
import a maildir structure produced by kmail1

Actual Results:  
the read/unread status is read from the mail files and not from the indexes

Expected Results:  
The import process should preserve the read/unread status flag.
