You can press <F5> to sync the folder you are in directly.

Thunderbird does not make a difference between dIMAP and IMAP. It just
saves the messages for offline use, if you want to. Apart from that,
Thunderbird takes advantage of IMAP IDLE, what kmail will learn, if the
underlying architecture is switched to Akonadi, what will happen hopefully
before GNU Hurd is finally available... ;)
