I have seen this behavior when accessing the account with both Pine and
Mozilla after using Evolution. When Mozilla was my primary email client,
Pine and Mozilla showed the flags as updated by the other, so I don't
think these applications are reverting the flags.

The account type is IMAP. (When would IMAPrev1 be appropriate?) The
server is cyrus v2.1.17.
