In my test case I hadn't any problems with seen and other flags.
I to be told that both source and destination are using skiplist as seen 
database format.

To be honest this server is an IMAP only service, so I haven't tested 
the POP3 cases.
Anyway I think that this problem is related with the first one, because 
if a message is downloaded via POP3 the server sould set the seen flag 
on it.
I did a public cyrus server migration months ago from 2.2.x to 2.4.17 
and I don't recall to have had thoose kind of problems (and I'm sure 
that there where 30/50 users using POP3 with copy on server).

Did you rsync the /var/lib/imap/user/ from the old server?

Bye
Giuseppe
