In the message list in Karmic the status column is still titled
'Flagged' (as opposed to simply 'Status' or 'Important'). This is
confusing because there is also another column called 'Follow up flag'.
When creating a search folder the status field is referred to as
'Status' 'Important'.

Well, in my previous comment I was actually trying to make it clearer,
using a side to side comparison, that this is a bug, not a user mistake.
You can't give two features the same name in the main UI (read column
names) and expect the user to guess the correct naming.

evolution follow up
Ah sorry, launchpad puts me on the defensive! I personally think this is
a bug. (To repeat myself somewhat) especially as part of one of the
feature is 'hidden' by default.

The flagged you say with the exclamation point is the important
mark. You can search for these messages with Status - is - important.
They are clearly different things since you may want to mark something
unimportant for follow up (it may be urgent but not important).
Here is the wording
New to Ubuntu it wasn't clear to me that these were different features,
but it is now thanks. I think particularly for users migrating from
Outlook this is a bit confusing, I never would have thought to look what
the sub-options were under 'Status' when creating a search folder,
because to my
thanks, that works fine for me, can you reproduce the same with another
new user configuration? I've marked a few messages as Follow up and
they get showed on the search folder, not confirming.

I can confirm that setting up a new user account with the same email
address account the problem still occurs.
The problem also occurs with my partners email account (also imap) on
the same computer.
It also occurs on my other system, a hardy laptop.

Ok, I've figured out what the problem is. There appear to be two kinds
of Flags.
There is the 'Flagged' column which appears by default in Ubuntu.
Clicking in here next to a message makes an orange exclamation emblem
appear next to that message. However these messages do not appear in a
Follow Up
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description didn't include
enough information. You may find it helpful to read How to report bugs
effectively http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Open Evolution
2) From the Search menu choose to create a new search folder
3) Select criteria Follow Up Flagged
4) Choose to search any OR all folders (bug occurs either way)
Expected behavior:
Opening the search folder would produce a list of flagged messages.
