Bug Description
When "message synchronizing" is set to download messages from an IMAP account, a newly created folder under the inbox is automatically set to download messages as well, but when that folder is then moved (using the mouse) under some other folder, the "download" check box on the panel "Items for offline use" is cleared.

Steps to reproduce:
Original report: https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ thunderbird/ +bug/1796777
Original report filed using Ubuntu 16.04 and Thunderbird 52.9.1
Confirmed using Ubuntu 18.10 and Thunderbird 60.2.1
In order to confirm the above report in Ubuntu I created a folder in one of my IMAP accounts where all messages are set to be downloaded. The "Select this folder for offline use" checkbox was selected as I would expect sub-folders to inherit the properties of the main folder. I then moved this test folder elsewhere in the folder tree.
Actual results:
The "Select this folder for offline use" check box was cleared.
Expected results:
The "Select this folder for offline use" check box should remain checked.
