I found the problem I was having with the add-on. I was seeing only a popup window with a list of my account names. The add-on wouldn't show or do anything else. No menu, no buttons, just the account list.
You can see what it looks like here: https://i.postimg.cc/VkWqM344/MSF-2.jpg
The reason: it doesn't like my desktop video config. It needs to be fixed for compatibility with HD desktops/displays.
The popup window is permanently stuck above the desktop frame (out of bounds) and there is no way to force it down once opened, IF I run the add-on with Tbird in my normal desktop mode (1920x1080).
I had tried changing desktop resolution before, but I didn't go far enough with my experiments. Turns out, there are two ways to fix this:
1.) Lower desktop vertical resolution to 1024 or below. The top bar, menu/tabs and buttons become visible. Then, drag the window down and the top portion of the window will stay in view when desktop resolution is increased to normal.
2.) This method may not work for everyone, depending on their graphics card/driver. Switch display via driver from 1080p to 1080i while the popup window is stuck out of bounds. That forces the top part of it into view. Changing from 1080i to 1080p with the window stuck out of bounds also works.
Lastly, the window must be maximized in order to scroll to the bottom of a long accounts list and to see the Local folders bar, Restart Thunderbird and Close buttons.
Kind of a pain to have to do this, but beggars can't be choosers.

Works fine for me in 68.7.0 and is a very handy little app indeed.
If you follow paddingtonbear's simple instructions (ignoring any references to hunny, of course) it should even, I hope, have worked for Mozzied.

Отлично работает. Сначала нужно поставить через Инстурменты-Дополнения, перезагрузиться и в Инструменты - Сортировка папок вручную настроить!

Works great! Don't forget to activate the menu bar so you can find it under Tools.

With Thunderbird 68, the window does not fit to the screen and buttons are not displayed when there are many IMAP accounts.

This looks great, but like other users, after installing and activating it, I can't find it in the Tools menu. I also can't figure out how to ad to the menu as it doesn't show up in the icons. I think there are enough of these comments to justify a low review, which I'm happy to change if there's an update. Also a brief "How To" would be great.

Nach langem Suchen habe ich den Menüeintrag von Manually sort folders gefunden: er ist zu finden unter "Extras - Konten- & Ordnerreihenfolge ändern" (auf deutsch). Es wäre schön, wenn das irgendwo stehen würde. Sonst funktioniert alles (68.7.0)

Just tested with Thunderbird 68.4.1 (64-Bit) at ElementaryOS: Runs great!
Hint: Don't forget to activate the 'menu bar' - the add-on seems to be only available via 'Extras' in the 'menu bar'!

At first I submitted "Not working on Thunderbird 68.4.1 (64-bit), Linux Mint". Then, reading down the reviews, I see user "271dad" wrote:
Now you find it here:
menu bar => Tools => Manually sort folders
But unfortunately (at the moment) not here:
burger menu => Tools
So I can't tell you how many times I tried to find via "burger" menu only, because I do not show the Menu Bar (by choice). Now I will show it, to make up for this inconsistency. Because I am an nice guy, I'll change my rating from one star to two. Developers, this is ridiculous and is just sloppy programming. Please fix and make your program look more professional.

The application has been updated and "Options" no longer appear in the extension that allows me to order the different email accounts. Any solution?
