OfflineIMAP does not presently create new folders on the server, nor delete
folders that were deleted.  However, if you add that folder on the server,
the message you put in it will be automatically synced.

This was a design decision some time back and it's now seeming not quite so
sensible.  Maybe I'll add that feature.
