📝 Overview

By default, Mailbird Next displays your email accounts in the order they were added: the first will appear at the top, whereas the most recently added account will be located at the bottom. However, we realize that this order may not always match your preferences.

That’s why we’ve made it easy to rearrange your account list with a simple drag-and-drop action.

🔄 Rearranging Your Accounts

You can reorder your email accounts in just a few steps:

  1. Click the Settings icon (gear icon) in the bottom-left corner.

  2. Go to the Accounts tab.

  3. In the list of accounts, click and hold the one you want to move.

  4. Drag it up or down to your preferred position.

    • Tip: A blue line will appear to indicate where the account will be placed once you release the mouse button.

  5. Exit the Settings menu.

Your email accounts in the left sidebar will now reflect the new order.
