The Mail app shows the folders that are configured with each mail account. If you need to create, rename, or delete a folder, sign in to the web service for your account, such as Hotmail, and make the changes there. Any changes you make to folders through your accounts’ web interface will be automatically reflected in Mail the next time you sync the account.

    If you have Windows 10 you can do it by selecting (more) and the + sign next to (all folders) to add and to delete a folder just right click the folder you want delete or rename.

    In Hotmail, there is no + sign next to 'all folders'.

    I feel so silly. just right click on the folder name and  it gives you  options in a little drop down menu..one of  which is DELETE!!!!
