I am new to Mac's the Macbook Pro I just bought is my first. I have Mail set up up pull e-mail from my e-mail account but I have run into a bit of an annoying situation. I have been using the webmail feature of my e-mail. Consequently once I connected mail to this account I have a rather large amount of e-mail downloaded. My question is how do I create subfolders in my inbox to organize and store my e-mail? I can find no option to accomplish this. Is it even possible to do in Mail? Thanks

Apple Mail - Menu Mailbox - New Mailbox.

Maybe this will help:

Calling it a "Mailbox" is asinine. I get this question a LOT at work.

I agree, it's very counter-intuitive. But once you know, it's not a big deal.

"Nomenclature is 90% of everything." It's amazing how little difference there is to the user in how OS X presents things and how Windows presents them-and this applies to most Linux distros as well. With a handy-dandy translation card, you can sit down and use just about any computer OS and most apps without much trouble.
