Until the 31.7.0 update all my inboxes appear at the top of the left panel e.g me@email address Inbox Me@anotheremail Inbox and then all the other folders were down below the list of inboxes which meant that I could see which email had just received a new email at a glance. now with this update it has been reordered so that I now have me@email address Inbox Archives Junk Deleted Draft sent Items Spam Me@anotheremail Inbox Archives Junk Deleted Draft sent Items Spam

Which means every time an email arrives I have to scroll to find the account the email has arrived in. Is there anyway to get back to the original order that I had

Hi tjohnson2 Thank you very much for the link unified worked perfectly.

I was looking in the wrong place I had thought i had set the original order in account settings and couldn't figure how i did it, as it was a few years ago.

Much appreciated
