Probably because they use the following pref
// This option tells Mozilla to check for IMAP folders other than INBOX
// Currently Mozilla just checks INBOX for new mails.
user_pref("mail.check_all_imap_folders_for_new", true);
Add this to your user.js and restart Mozilla. It wil now check for all
the subfolders for new messages when it checks for mail in Inbox (the
time interval is controlled by Edit->Mail/News
Preferences-><Server>->Server Settings)
Pratik.
