Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Firstly, I would like to say that this is a great add-on when dealing with non-local folders - it does everything it says on the tin.

HOWEVER - despite what others have said, this add-on no longer works correctly when sorting accounts (although it used to!). I happily used it for ages until my Thunderbird crashed. I reinstalled my preferred version (68.12.1 - I have no desire for the newer ones) and now this feature no longer works. (I have tried this version and every version on Github.)

To explain more fully, what I want to do is place a local folder at the top of my account list in the left-hand main pane, so I see it first. This was always possible to do, but now it no longer works.

'Sort Accounts' tab
---------------------------
- 'Local Folders' is shown in a small separate box underneath all the other accounts (left-hand list), and is not clickable, therefore it cannot seemingly be moved (although the text confidently tells me that I can override this).

- The local folder that I actually created isn't shown at all in the left-hand list?

- I can see and set my folder in 'First account in the folder pane'. but that does not work either (after restarts) - the folder stays firmly at the bottom of the list in the main pane. (So I can't 'override this' then!)

'Extra Settings' tab
---------------------------
- I can allegedly make my folder the Startup folder - yes, Thunderbird will go straight there on startup - but the folder is still at the bottom of my left-hand main pane!

I thought a workaround for this might be to make my folder a sub-folder inside 'Local Folders' - but if 'Local Folder' can't be moved anyway, what is the point?

What is so frustrating about this is that this feature USED to work - and it doesn't any more! If I'm using the same version (and the same version of Thunderbird that I used before), what is the problem - why doesn't this work?

So yes for non-local folders but a big fat no for local folders - sorry!

(Note - I have just raised this as an issue at https://github.com/protz/Manually-Sort-Folders/issues.)

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.1.2).
