XFOR: Messages in Draft Folder Lose Draft Flag after Migration

ID: Q200278

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5

SUMMARY

When you use the IMAP4 Migration wizard to migrate messages from an IMAP4 mail server, messages in the Drafts folder may lose the Unsent flag after migration.

MORE INFORMATION

This occurs because some IMAP4 clients do not properly set the Draft flag on messages in the Drafts folder. Some clients treat any message in the Drafts folder as a draft message without checking for or setting the Draft flag. When messages are migrated from this folder, they will appear as sent messages in Exchange Server.
