I have a Yahoo mail account. Using Thunderbird, how do I move a received email into one of the 'folders' that I have (and Thunderbird shows on the left column)

I recently started using Thunderbird to handle my email, which is a Yahoo account.

I got all the emails moved over into Thunderbird, and Thunderbird shows all my old Yahoo mail folders. And I can read old emails from these folders when using Thunderbird.

However, if I read a new email using Thunderbird (from my inbox) I don't see a way to move it into one of the folders (shown of the left column of Thunderbird). How can I do this?
