  Creating a New Folder

  Choose Create Folder...  from the main window's Maintenance
  menu to create a new folder in which to store mail.

  The folder is created in the selected drawer.

  A dialog box is displayed in which you enter the name of
  the folder to be created.  A folder name can contain up to 39
  characters; it must begin with a letter or number; and it can
  contain letters, numbers, underscores, hyphens, dollar signs,
  spaces, and periods.

  Click on the OK button to create the folder.

  Empty folders are automatically deleted by Mail.  If you
  create a new folder and do not file a message in it, the folder
  is deleted when the drawer is closed.
