Apple Mail folders missing on iPhone after setup

I created folders in Apple Mail on my MacBook Air to save various email messages. When I set up Apple Mail on my new iPhone 17 Pro, all of my messages showed up, but my folders are gone. How can I get my folder organization back? The Apple Mail accounts on both devices are IMAP, but iCloud is off.

When you open the mail app and all of your emails are listed below the Inbox, did you tap the circle at the top with a back arrow to take you to Mailboxes, where the folders your mail account should appear?
