This is, what the logs say, when i move a message to another folder with
thunderbird drag&drop

Dec 04 17:22:24 mymail dovecot[16982]: 
imap(user.name)<17010><XtHsqjR8JqbV0J0m>: copy from INBOX/Arbeiten/bla: 
box=INBOX, uid=849, msgid=<a133b9b2-6913-14e8-f509-b6c81750e...@bla.com>, 
from=Full Name <u...@bla.com>, subject=TEST005, flags=($label3 NonJunk)

Dec 04 17:22:24 mymail dovecot[16982]: 
imap(user.name)<17010><XtHsqjR8JqbV0J0m>: expunge: box=INBOX/Arbeiten/bla, 
uid=7, msgid=<a133b9b2-6913-14e8-f509-b6c81750e...@bla.com>, from=Full Name 
<u...@bla.com>, subject=TEST005, flags=(\Seen $label3 NonJunk)

So i think, there is a Problem with dovecot. Is it possible, that a
misconfiguration causes such a behaviour?

It is only the \Seen flag which is removed and obviously the
\Recent-flag, which is set, when i move a message to another folder. All
other Flags can i set/remove with sieve-filters.
Maybe these flags are set correctly, but then is another process, which
removes the \seen and sets the \recent flag on every new message in a
folder...
