I've found that some extensions also cause problems with this. Two that I've found so far are:

- ImportExportTools (seems to do lots of concurrent IMAP operations with Tbird, often resulting in "Operation in progress" messages)
- Send Without Save(Copy Sent to Current has equivalent functionality and seems to be fine)

Once I disabled the above extensions, using a cyrus imapd 2.4 IMAP account that supports IDLE and CONDSTORE, Tbird changes from often requiring the Offline/Online trick, to usually updating immediately, sometimes requiring a folder change to see the updates, and occasionally requiring a Compact to see the updates. But as far as I have seen so far, Tbird now never requires Offline/Online to sync the folder, which is a huge improvement.

Disabling CONDSTORE further improves matters and Tbird more often (always?) updates the folder immediately. Obviously that is related to the separate CONDSTORE issues though.
