Dear KDE bretheren,

Does anyone know how to change the order of folders in either the "favourites" area, or the "folders view" (with long folders list) down the side of kmail?
Since upgrading to version 4.7.2 it is looks different and I dont seem to be able to change it. The favourites view looks awful as it is doesnt seen to be aligned at all - its all "higgelgy piggledy".

The folders view is not in the order I would like either; its alphabetical - can I change this? I tried to change "sort items" options to "drag and drop" by right clicking on the pane, but it doesnt seem to work drag and drop.

Any ideas or have I drawn a blank here?

Thanks in advance.

I know some work went into the favorities area, but I'm not sure which version has this in, or if the improvements you need are in.
Regarding sorting of folders, I think you can change the account ordering, but I'm not sure if you can use a custom ordering. Please check bugs.kde.org if this issue has been reported (if I recall, it has).
