Manually (drag to) rearrange order of accounts in account list

[tornuggla]

I have several email accounts (who hasn't). In the accounts toolbar they seem to be forever stuck in the order I added them to thunderbird. Correct me if I just haven't found any existing way to rearrange them.

Anyhow, it should be possible to drag and rearrange them on the spot, so that I can easily put my actual most used accounts on top.

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

I also agree. I have wanted this feature for a long time. The main reason to use Thunderbird is you can manage multiple emails. Please also kudo my idea if you want to add built-in highlight text function in Thunderbird.

You open the account settings and drag the accounts into the order you want them displayed in the main reading view.

@tornuggla, did you attempt this in Account Settings? 

There rare reports of reordering failing to work. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1870527 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1866668

If you mean reordering from the dashboard instead of in the Account Settings page, a similar proposal has already been deferred. See -
