At least the message flags (replied, important, etc.) are not guaranteed 
to be present on the server. Since quite some time KMail tries to store 
the flags on the server, but this requires the IMAP server to support a 
certain IMAP extension and for messages which are older than KMail's 
ability to store the flags on the server the flags are not stored on the 
server.

It would be really nice if this information could be retained by the 
migration.
