Hello Jb1004,


We see that you need help with Mail on your iPhone.


For the best information on how to create a mailbox, check this out: Use mailboxes to organize email on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.


If you’re unable to create a mailbox, can you tell us if it is happening with a particular mail account? For example, iCloud, Outlook, or Gmail?


We ask because if this is happening with a third-party email provider, the best option would be to reach out to them for help.


Cheers!
