The default Android email client allows you to set up your email with Gmail, Yahoo and Hotmail. To create a new folder in your Android email system, you'll need to access the email account in your Web browser. Once you create the folder inside the email account, you'll be able to view it through Android. You cannot create new folders for your Android email application directly from your phone.
