Is there some way I can change the order in which email accounts are presented in the left panel on Thunderbird (91.9.0 (64-bit))? Perhaps a config file within the profile?

I note that in the preferences/settings, you can activate the account with the mouse, but you can't drag/drop to change order (maybe a useful feature to have?).

Thanks.

At the top right of the Thunderbird window, click the menu button > Account Settings

You can re-order the accounts in the left pane via drag'n'drop

Thank you! Face palm moment. But, the UI doesn't consistently let me perform the drag-and-drop -- for some reason, but I got it to work.
