Hi,

In the past I have used the "Manually Sort Folders" plugin in order to be able to change the order of email accounts in Thunderbird. But now that I've gotten a new computer and installed Thunderbird on it, which is Thunderbird 78.1.0, apparently the "Manually Sort Folders" plugin is not compatible with Thunderbird 78 and only compatible with older versions. Is there a way to change the order of email accounts either without this plugin, or is there a new version of this plugin available somewhere?

Email accounts will be listed in the order they are created. You do have control over which one appears at the top because that will be the one set as default.

Menu app icon > Account Settings select the account you want to set as default. click on 'Account Actions' select 'Set as default' from the drop down options.

Restart Thunderbird.

It would seem Thunderbird developers are actively working on code to allowing sorting accounts (not folders) directly within Thunderbird, without the need for an addon. So whilst not available yet, it is in the pipeline.

It was originally asked about 16 years ago and seemed to be going no where, but in recent days there is activity. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=244347
