The stock Android client doesn't support this (not surprisingly), so  
I'm basically out of luck. Thanks for the quick reply so that I can  
stop searching for the configuration option that would magically make  
this happen. I guess I would either learn to live with this  
limitation, or install a third party e-mail client that does support  
this out of the box (there seem to be several that support this  
feature). For now, I'll just deliver messages to the Inbox and copy  
(rather than move them) to the required subfolders.
