Can't create new folders in Mail

Running Monterey 12.6.8, Macbook Pro. I can no longer create new folders in Mail. They appear as if I did and then promptly disappears.

Cannot move folders in Mail on Mac There is much griping about this issue online and no solution. I spent hours on the phone recently with customer support at apple and still could not get it to work after much technical tweaking. Then I was promised a phone call from someone with more expertise that never materialized. So maybe they could post a solution here? Just for reference, my Mac is a Macbook Pro, 2021, 14 inches running Ventura 13.1. Interestingly, my old Macbook, 2018 13 inch running the same OS has no problem moving folders. So I'm at a loss...

Where are my Apple Mail folders stored On My Mac? There isn’t a “Mail” folder in my library, so I cannot locate the folders that are supposed to be on my Mac. Also, for some reason when I drag an email file into a folder all of the content disappears.

Depending on Who your e-mail Provider is and what Protocols it uses.

If using IMAP protocol then what is appearing on the mail Servers should be reflect back into Mail

If using POP protocol then you may need to Log into the e-mail Providers Web Portal and create the new folder
