Confirmed with two Gmail accounts in Thunderbird 45.8.0. I have subscribed to the "Spam" folders, but TB never shows unread email there unless I click on the folder.

This is by design, correct?

You can go to the folder properties of the junk folder, and tick the "When getting new messages for this account, always include this folder". Or under the synchronization tab there, select for offline use, if that was what you were after.

Now I have set the click box "When getting new messages for this account, always include this folder" and now all Emails in this folder are downloaded.
