I was able to delete my old email account and enter my new one. However, the new one displays in the folder panel BELOW the long column of "Local Folders." I really should have my inbox at the TOP of that column, not the BOTTOM. How can I change the display order?

Chosen solution

After posting this message, I closed Thunderbird. When I immediately opened it again, the email folder was at the top of the list, ABOVE the "Local Folders" entries. What I could not do for myself, the software did for me. Thanks. At least this exercise tested the ability of the new email address to receive a message<g>!
