Works for me. Try Help | Troubleshoot mode.
Also update to v128.

I don't understand, how troubleshoot mode could help me.
v128 is not yet released for Ubuntu. Have to wait.
Anyway, currently I have no such candidate messages to move, and if I had, I'm afraid to loose read status again.
At the time it was a big bunch of messages I moved. I observed, there was a long time to wait for the "move cursor" when dragging the selected messages, and again a long time to wait on the target folder to drop when holding the left mouse button until anything happened.
So I guess, the problem is dependent on the number of messages to move at a time.

No answer :-(
The bug still occurs with v128.
Additional Information:
- The messages were in a folder, which is not enabled for offline reading, so their bodies have been downloaded while moving to a local folder.
- I selected them inside a virtual folder.
Maybe that matters.
A new observation:
The un-read statuses are not deleted, when I move the messages per context menu "Move to ...", but the are deleted, when I move them by mouse drag & drop.
The bug is still there in TB 128.13.0esr when I move the messages by mouse drag & drop.

I have marked 2 messages as unread and then moved them by mouse to a local folder.
This time, one of the 2 has lost the read status.
On a second try I was successful, both messages preserved the unread status.
It seem to depend on how fast I do this move.
In any way, moving them back by Ctrl+Z always deleted the unread status.
When moving a big bunch of messages, fast action is not possible, because it takes some time that the mouse pointer changes it's state for a successful move.
