Changing order of mailboxes

Thunderbird Accounts

I have my Thunderbird set up to receive mail from four different email addresses plus I have local folders. Is there some way of changing the order of the mailboxes? I have tried dragging them with no success.

If you go to Account Settings (press Alt-e and choose it from the menu that appears) you can drag them there.

Thank you. I could not get to Account Settings bypressing Alt-e but found it under "tools" in the menu and managed to change the order of the mailboxes
