Asking this here
https://together.jolla.com/question/50527/ability-to-reorder-e-mail-accounts-list-in-e-mail-app/
asked/requested in 2014.
Still not solved nor answered.

So let me ask here once more:
does someone know where to tinker/squeeze the system to do a manual sorting of mail accounts?
(nota bene: not asking Jollla to implement this, just let me know where I can do it!)

@peterleinchen ~ Have a look in the following places;

/usr/share/jolla-email/pages/AccountList.qml

/usr/share/jolla-email/pages/CombinedInbox.qml

Those two pages (and maybe others) make up the list of accounts you see in the email app.

Bringing up the thread here again. Sometimes one of my email accounts have problems to connect to the server (again always try to sync - endless). The solution is to remove the email account and readding it. This causes a new order of the accounts at the App. I found that the account are stored (with privileged access) at /home/defaultuser/.local/share/system/privileged/Accounts/libaccounts-glib/ on a sqlite database.But i did not found a way to reorder the email accounts as i prefer :thinking:. Would be nice to move the accounts up or down at the settings an select a default account (as Thunderbire have).

Second problem with the email app is the old gpg support. So the question is, if it is possible do build a new version for Sailfish (maybe on openrepos and/or chum) an get it working with the jolla email app? As an old Linux veteran i prefer email instead of social media apps - bit gpg should work encrypted with an up to date encryption :wink: .

I think email is an essential app and should be usable on SailfishOS.

Best regards gabs

BTW. i use the sqlitebrowser on debian to take a look at the sqlite DB above …
