Thanks for the info!

It seems that folders within an account are lexical apart from Inbox at the
start and Trash at the end - but account name ordering doesn't seem to have
any logic to it - I changed account names but they remain in the same
relative places so account name ordering is not lexical?

There is a "Search Folders" at the bottom on the left, and "On This
Computer" remains at the top changing the initial letter of account names
including switching to upper case seems to make no difference! Maybe account
get added above pre-existing ones but "On This Computer" is fixed at the top
whatever you do.... certainly in version evolution-2.26.3-1 in F11.

Sigh - I am fast coming to the conclusion there is no ideal mail client -
each has its own list of pluses and minuses......
