I've heard of it. That's about as far as my familiarity with it goes.
However, I've used another such client, SquirrelMail WebMail. They're
just webmail interfaces for accessing IMAP accounts not necessarily
running on the server running the webmail client.

Ok. This is a clue.

Yes. These sound like folder types that TB! cannot subscribe to.

Ok. Have you tried deleting the already existing folder after
moving/copying the messages to another folder, and then recreating a
new folder?

Odd. I've never created a folder in TB! and it looks different or that
I cannot remain subscribed to.

Maybe the folders don't have the permissions that allow TB! to
subscribe to them. Although if it's that problem, Horde shouldn't be
able to subscribe to those folders either.
