The MAPI protocol is stateful so the client sends a state to the server about its current status and the server acts consequently to update the client. also known as "Update Folder". This operation for INBOX folder is automatic thanks to notifications and for the other folders must be done manually or it will be periodically by the client. I would like to note a known limitation synchronising the hierarchy, the new root folders (INBOX level) appears after Outlook process start. I hope this clarifies a little the sync.
