Well, Karl, different people have different needs !
I have to maintain about 15 accounts plus some aliases and 
my account naming is very methodic and structural !!
Best is alpha sorting these accounts ...
... to work most efficiently !!! ;-)

Just a simple always sort the accounts in the folder pane would do !

I am able to switch their displaying from
All Folders to
Unread Folders to 
Favorite Folders to 
Recent Folders !!

Seems impossible or I haven't found the (hidden/magic) button /
switch !? ;-D
