Since I have the same version of KMail (on Debian though), I tried to 
reproduce.
Indeed, if Local Folders is selected, the option for creating a new folder in 
the Folders menu is disabled.
However, the respective option in the context menu (AKA right click menu) on 
Local Folders is enabled and successfully created a top level folder.
