Until the latest TB update, my Local Folders were above my only mail folder. How do I get that layout back?
I have tried the Manually sort folders add-on, I have tried making the Local Folders the Default (Set as Default is grayed out), I have tried dragging the folders, nothing seems to work. Other local users have always had the Local folders below the mail folder, but I am used to it being the other way and would like to be able to get back to that.

I don't think it's possible anymore, at least with TB 68, to place Local Folders at the top of the Folder Pane, as that would make LF the Default account, which is not allowed.
Is there any way to sort my LF in reverse alpha/numeric order automatically? The benefit of the LF being on top allowed the most recent folders (numeric ascending order) to be closer to the mail folder Inbox and Sent folders.
On the 'Sort folders' tab of Manually sort folders settings, you can select Local Folders and then choose among three choices: TB default, plain string compare, and manually defined. It looks like the 2nd choice will sort automatically in ascending alphabetical order.

If I have to try to solve this in this manner then I would like descending alpha/numeric order.
I suggest you contact the add-on author and request the choice of ascending or descending sort order as an enhancement.
I have this same problem. My Local Folders IS my unified popmail drop so to speak. My 12 accounts I want below again like I've had for years, since I use my IMAP to do searches and check junkmail once in a while. I already asked the developer of the Manually sort folder add-on...but we'll see. I hope Mozilla adds some work around.
