Just a possibility if this is ver 146 you're using: - try highlighting the account - rightclick and select 'reset folder order.'

Its not the folder order; its the move / copy to recent destinations order that's the issue.

The File (saving to a folder) Recent function used to have the folders alphabetically. Some genius thought to reorganize the Recent folders to be in chronological order. Is there a setting to have the Recent folders be in alphabetical order again? I could not find anything. Thanks in advance.

Agreed. Developers: please restore the recent destinations to alphabetical order OR, at least, give users the option of having it in alphabetical order.

The choice option is being worked on.

Version: 147.0 Issue: recent destination not being alphabetical anymore

I've been using Thunderbird for 17 years and donating in recent years. I've never complained about the updates but this issue is significant enough for me to make a community account and complain about. Please release an update on this particular issue as soon as possible. It's stressful to try to look for the right folder in recent destination.

Thank you for all you do.
