Have you tested with gmail?

The server doesn't seem to reuse a UID, if I understand you correctly. The 
message has a UID before the COPY command and nothing changes. The UID is 
in continuous use for a particular message, so there's no reuse going on, 
and the ban on reuse does not apply.

Can you find out whether flags apply to the message or to references? Ie. 
if you copy a message into two mailboxes and set flag "foobar" on the 
message in one mailbox, does the flag appear on the message in the other 
mailbox?
