No need to apologize or make a big deal out of asking for advice. There's a big 
difference between asking a question that is rarely discussed, such as your 
question here, and asking a question that is repeatedly asked on list that 
could be answered with a quick google, archive or VO help search.

Here's my version of the answer to your question:
1. The following instructions assume you know how to perform basic Mac OS 
navigation via keyboard and VO, that you've spent some time using VO+K to 
familiarize yourself with VO commands, that you have Mail.app open in Lion or 
Mountain Lion, and that you have both the Mailbox list and the Favorites Bar 
showing, both of which can be toggled via the View menu.
2. Interact with the Mailbox list and move the VO cursor to the mailbox you 
wish to add to your Favorites Bar.
3. Press VO+comma. VO will say the name of the mailbox, will announce "marked 
for drag and drop," and wil make a swishing or scraping sound, assuming you've 
not changed the default sounds.
4. Stop interacting with the Mail box list, navigate to the Favorites Bar and 
interact with it.
5. Move the VO cursor to the location on the Favorites Bar where you'd like 
this mailbox icon to reside.
6. Press one of the following: VO+Shift+< to drop the item to the left of the 
VO cursor; VO+Shift+> to drop the item to the right of the VO cursor. VO should 
start scraping again and should then say something like "mailbox being dragged, 
mailbox inserted."
That's all there is to it.

HTH,
Bryan
