macOS Mojave 0.14.1
iOS 12.1

I’m using the native email clients on all devices to connect to Gmail.
I cannot sort my email folders on my MacBook Pro or my iPoine 8 Plus or iPad Pro 10.5”.

When I select an folder in email I cannot drag it up or down on my list of email folders.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
TIA

On my Mac, I can drag and drop folders up and down with the mouse.

On iOS, you can't really reorder them (they are alphabetical) as they are listed, but if you show the list of folders, tap "Edit", that reveals small controls that you can use to mark favorite mailboxes, which get listed at the top of the mailbox list, and those can be dragged around into an order that you prefer.

Tks doogald,

I’ll try the iOS suggestion.

Anyone else have suggestions on the Mojave Email sorting issues I’m having?
TIA
