The best way to perserve the flags is by transfering the eMails over the
IMAP-Protocol. There are severel tools to do this job. Most of them
are written to sync two ore more mailfolders.
As far as i have tested them there was no perfect ore even best
migration tool.
We will use the mailutil programm which comes with the uw-imap server.
It was the fastest programm and it keeps the flags.
