Interesting question.  Recurrences are like projects in MLO.  The subtask of
a recurrence does NOT become a "separate" recurrence.

The only way to do something like what you want is to have the folders be
the recurrence.  Create a weekly folder and then subfolders for each day.
Then make the subfolder a recurrence.

In the recurrence window go into advanced options and set:
do not create a completed copy
automatically recur when all subtasks are completed.

Then when you move something into the tuesday folder it just shows up on
tuesdays.  Remember that the tasks have to have the "inherit parent dates"
box checked for this to work.

That is the closest that I know of to make MLO do what you are asking...
