How did you attempt to run the migration when it was "somehow" not migrated?

The 17 migration simply forces the sync state to be refreshed for all  
devices. This was necessary because of a required change in the way  
the folder hierarchy is maintained. Non-broken clients will then  
automatically initiate a new FOLDERSYNC that will repopulate the  
folder hierarchy on the client.

Unfortunately though, if the user has selected any email folders for  
PUSH that are not pushed by default on that client these will have to  
be re-selected by the user on the client since the internal  
identifiers for the folders have changed.
