User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/85.0.4183.123 Safari/537.36
Steps to reproduce:
I run
Name Thunderbird
Version 68.12.1
Build ID 20200929010218
Update History
Update Channel release
User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/68.12.1
OS Linux 5.8.13-200.fc32.x86_64
, installed from Mozilla/upstream.
IMAP backend is
dovecot --version
2.3.11.3 (502c39af9)
MailFolder sharing is enabled, under a shared namespace, with IMAP prefix = 'shared/%%u/'
'user1' shares a folder, "SHARED", currently with 'Full Control' rights to 'user2'.
@ 'user1', the SHARED folder hierarchy is
SHARED/
folder1/
folder2/
file21
it's currently visible/usable @ 'user2' TBird client.
shared/
user2@example.com/
SHARED/
folder1/
folder2/
file21
If I add a folder @ 'user1' in TBird,
SHARED/
folder1/
folder2/
file21
folder3/
The change/addition is NOT seen @ 'user2'.
Toggling any/all of the folders @ 'user2' closed/open has NO EFFECT.
But,
after QUIT+RELAUNCH user2's Tbird, PLUS toggling closed/open all expanded folders,
the added folder appears.
Actual results:
server-side changes to shared IMAP folders FAIL to refresh until AFTER TBird restart
Expected results:
server-side changes to shared IMAP folders successfully refresh (or refreshable) in current/existing session instance

Sorry, we're 68 is EOL so we're not doing future patches there.
You'll want to see if it still reproduces in version 78.
upgraded to
Name Thunderbird
Version 78.3.2
Build ID 20201006011220
Distribution ID
Update Directory
/usr/local/thunderbird.release.78x
Update History
Update Channel release
User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:78.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/78.3.2
OS Linux 5.8.13-200.fc32.x86_64
exactly same behavior with v78x as reported with v68ESR -- updates in mounted IMAP shares are not seen until AFTER a TBird reboot.

please version field at the original reported version. thanks
please version field at the original reported version. thanks
I don't see the purpose.
I no longer use v68.
You stated it's EOL'd/unsupported, and suggested I update to, and reproduce in, v78.
Which I've done.
I'll never switch back, nor provide any further information re: v68.
It's now a bug re: v78.
Do you need a identical bug re-filed for v78?

(In reply to xrave from comment #4)
please [keep] version field at the original reported version. thanks
I don't see the purpose.
It explicitly indicates what version the problem is first seen.
Do you need a identical bug re-filed for v78?
No, please don't. If a bug report is still open it implies it also impacts the current version - unless someone states otherwise.

Does this still reproduce with newer versions?
