THe problem is in your thinking.. When you download the E_mail to your home computer and remove it from the "HOST" ushing protocol the file now exists on yoru comptuer.. NOT the host

Your phone can not access it

SOLUTION
Dump the Client based E-mail (T-Bird) and go with Web-Mail. Yahoo, G-Mail. Microsoft's current mail system and most other E-mail hosts today offer a Web mail.

With Web mail I can access from this Chromebook, the one beside it, the Windows machine below it, the one in the ham shack, the one in the bedroom My Phone or tablet. All see exactly the same thing.

If I move it off to a folder.. all see that folder

All see exactly the same thing

NOTE: the downside: Limited storage on the free Web clients. pay for more is an option.

You misunderstand how IMAP works. IMAP is a client-server system that stores the content on the server. All of the client folders stay in sync. No reason to be forced into crappy web clients.

I have an S7 and it shows all of the folders from my work computer using IMAP. Read, move or delete anything on my work laptop and it shows the same on the phone. There is a drop down at the bottom of the folder list on the stock email app that says “All Folders.” You also have to pick a specific account first (instead of “All Accounts” if you have more than one account setup in your phone.

Also, are sure you are not moving the messages to a local folder on your PC? You can create folders that are not part of IMAP or on the host. As long as all of your home computers can still see a message it should be ok.
