Folders created on the server are not displayed by Thunderbird automatically

Hi all,

my mail host automatically files mails that are addressed to mail+filter@example.com into a folder named "filter". Thunderbird does not display these folders by default. If I open the subscriptions for the account, the folder is displayed and marked by the subscription checkbox. Unsubscribing and resubscribing is necessary to display the folder.

In the account's Advanced Server Settings, I have unchecked "Show only subscribed servers" in an attempt to make the folders show up by default, but this was unsuccessful.

Any help to make these folders show up automatically would be appreciated.

There is no automatic mechanism for this.

But if you click twice the icon to the left of the account/server name in the Thunderbird folder pane, it will query the server to refetch the list of folders.
