When having to deal with multiple mail accounts in Thunderbird, how can I arrange the order they are listed in the folder pane of the main window, wide view, Mac OS X version? When I add new accounts, they get placed in whatever order Thunderbird pleases, usually not the one I need.

Shift, Control, Option or Command-Drag doesn't move them. Using v24.6.0 on OS X 10.7.5.
