In testing the migration from courier-imap to dovecot I've discovered that the forward flag on messages isn't kept track of in a standard way.

courier-imap seems to keep track of forwarded messages in courierimapkeywords/:list dovecot seems to add an 'a' flag to the filename.

The 'a' is mapped to the keyword in dovecot-keywords file (0 = a, 1 = b etc.). Does that file exist and does it contain "0 forwarded"?

Unfortunately this 'a' flag information doesn't seem to be given out by dovecot. It's like it's write only.

Is it a bug that dovecot doesn't hand out the "forwarded" metadata?

Seems to work with me:

x store 1 +flags forwarded

• 1 FETCH (FLAGS (forwarded)) x OK Store completed. x fetch 1 flags
• 1 FETCH (FLAGS (forwarded)) x OK Fetch completed.
