How to rearrange folders
I have fifteen mail folders under one account. I would like to rearrange them. How do I move a folder to a different location in the tree?

Thanks for your reply.
I assumed TB provided a way to do that.
Not trying to be critical but that extension says it only works through v64. I'm running v69

Re: How to rearrange folders
As I'm sure you already khow folders are arranged in alphabetical order.
I liked how outlook had a favorites folder where you could make certain folders appear at the top of the tree. I have 100+ folders. Here is how I solved the problem for my needs:
Under the inbox I created a folder named " _*Favorites ". That Folder appears as the first folder under the Inbox. I then create my favorites folders under the _*Favorites folder.
After the _*Favorites folder I wanted a folder to appear next for my clients. So I created a folder under the Inbox named " _Clients " . That folder then appears immediately after the _*Favorites folder and its sub-folders. I then make subfolders for my clients under the _Clients folder.
It works just fine. You might adopt this technique for your folder tree.
