You don’t actually sync your email account from your computer, you sync it from your email provider’s server. Any folders that you created on the server will sync to the device when you set up the email account using the instructions that lobsterghost1 provided for you.


Any folders that you created on your Mac that are On my Mac folders, will not sync to your account on the iPad. Those folders are for local organization on the Mac only and will not sync to the iPad.
