i set up the desired order of the accounts (tools/options/advanced/general/config editor/mail.accountmanager.accounts) and when i switch to favourite folders compact view (view/folders/favourite + compact view), the order is totally different, hence i dont have the desired order in this view, but i want to use tb in this view, because this is the most appropriate to manage multiple folders, thank you for your help in advance, Joe (win7)

You could have used this extension. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/manually-sort-folders/

I don't think manually changing things via config editor is a good idea. You may reverse those changes before trying the extension.
