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.
