How do I delete mailbox folders on my ipad

I have gone into 'edit' highlighted mailbox folder and hit 'delete' and then screen reverts to home screen showing all apps but mailbox folder has not been deleted when I go back into Mail.

is that folder associated with an exchange email? You may have to delete on the computer- I am just guessing

Above answer would be correct and might need to delete from the main mail acct, If a reg email acct it should delete right away. try a reboot and then try again.
