This is a documented limitation for restores done on Unity servers,
Connection should not be impacted. See:

http://ciscounitytools.com/Applications/COBRAS/Help/COBRAS.htm#_Important_Notes_About

"All messages restored with COBRAS to Unity will be marked as unread
and the send time will be set to the time you ran the COBRAS import.
The MAL interface does not allow for manipulating the send time or
read status when restoring messages."

"... messages restored onto Connection (from either a Unity backup or
a Connection backup) will include the correct original time stamp and
read status, unlike restores to Unity"
