I am using Thunderbird 91.1.1 (64-bit) on Windows 10. I have set up an outlook.com (hotmail.co.uk) account using IMAP. I use filters to sort my mail into folders, these are on the outlook server i.e. not using Thunderbird. Thunderbird only automatically receives mail into the 'inbox' folder. All other folders only update once I click on them. I cannot work out what is wrong.

Right-click a folder in the Folder Pane, Properties, check 'When getting new messages for this account always check this folder'.
