    I think that you would need to do that on a browser and make the folder while signed in at http://www.hotmail.com

    iGoof is correct-- at least that's the case with Gmail.

    I should point out that the folder contents won't download unless you go into the actual folder on your phone.

    Gmail is IMAP, and that's still the case for me.

    On the iPhone itself, some email servers allow it and some require to do it on the computer. I'm not sure which though, I always create them on my computer anyway.
