"Folders" belong to accounts. "Common folders" do not belong to
specific accounts. The concept behind this is that some people like to
store related messages in one folder, regardless of which account
received them.

As a silly example, you might receive computer-related jokes from
different sources into different accounts. However, you want to find
them easily when you want to send such a joke from whatever account,
so they are all together right there. Certainly there are more
intelligent uses, but I hope this makes the concept clear.
