The android phone app is not automatically redirecting spam emails from my inbox to spam folder How can I make this happen?

The app doesn't have an automatic spam or rule based filtering feature. Spam filtering is normally done by your email provider.

The community has requested a rule based filtering feature. You can vote for this using the Mozilla connect line below.

Thanks for the clarification. I was looking for a way to manage unwanted messages directly in the Android app, so it’s good to know that filtering is currently handled by the email provider. I’ll take a look at the feature request and vote for it. I’ve also been using Xuper TV lately, and it’s nice when apps keep things simple and straightforward.
