New Folder ordering incorrect with version 140 (bug1973085)
I just updated to version 140.0 and now my subfolders are out of order. Is there a fix for this, short of fixing it manually? I miss how they were automatically alphabetized. That went away when manual reordering was implemented. I can't grab a bunch at the same time and move them, since the order is so messed up.

As I've understood the new feature is no longer to sort folders alphabetically. New folders/subfolder will be located at the end the folder list. So you'll have to sort them manually now. But I miss a View menu item Folders > Sort by alphabetical order... unless there in a new hidden setting ??
Yes, I got that already, thanks. The issue is that my folders were already sorted, and they got messed up with the installation of the latest version.
That bug might be related, but it's not what I am getting at. The situation is that once I have reordered the folders, they should not be messed up again. I opened Thunderbird, to find that a bunch of folders starting with A for instance, were underneath the M's, but not all of them. The same issue happened elsewhere, too. As it is, I have manually reordered them, in the hope they don't get mixed up again. I rather wish they were automatically alphabetized like before.
It still may be related, perhaps even highly. So the next step is evaluate in 2-3 weeks when it's on 140. Or sooner if you want to try beta.
