Add new Email folder

How can I add my own folders to save my Email messages (not gmail) ? All I see is Inbox and trash.

Accepted answers

Are you using YAHOO ?? The way I did it was go ONLINE to my YAHOO email interface and add Folders there. Then they show up on the phone's email APP.

Thanks BingoRon for your inquiry and thanks everyone for your suggestions. Like Cody said, if you add folders online to your email account, these will be synced to your phone. This goes for Yahoo as well as multiple other email accounts.

not necessarily correct.
i've got the same groups in gmail that i have for my cox/pop3/outlook express account & the gmail groups don't sync to the phone.

i use ba as primary backup but anything i add to gmail contacts, also get to the phone.

Bearone21,

The orignal poster was referring to adding folders to non-Gmail email accounts. That information is correct.

I don't think that's correct. I have a Yahoo account and I set up additional folders online, but those folders do not show up on my Android. The email that is delivered to those folders online is simply dumped into my general inbox on the Android. Very frustrating.
