Change to Team's Channel "Email Messages" folder naming convention.

However, in the meantime, e-mails come into the folders as eml files, you should be able to just create a flow that triggers on files coming into the library regardless of folder then "Create a copy" into the e-mail folder so it triggers your existing flows, then deletes the file after. Moving might work depending on the trigger of existing flows, but I would look into something like that to just pick them up and move them for you in the meantime.

They should have at least put the folder inside the e-mail messages folder, not a bunch of folders in the channel root.....ugh.

ChrisWebbTech exactly this!
In my case, I'm syncing the entire folder structure to a local PC and, instead of using Graph, I'm parsing the emails with Python. If the new folder was nested in the existing one, it would have been a fairly trivial change to crawl the tree.
This has been handled badly. I can find no reference to any performance related issues in folders that, iin my circumstances, barely hold 1,000 messages let alone the massive volumes that Sharepoint purportedly allow!
