Hi all

Think I have found a work around for those times when your mailboxes are not in 
alphabetical order on the Mac.

1. Find a mailbox that you would like to move.
2. Make sure that you: Interact with the mailbox list.
3. Once interacted with the desired Mailbox, perform the following commands.

1. Control option command F5. This will position your mouse pointer over the 
mailbox.
2. Control option command shift space. This I’m guessing clicks the item you 
have under the mouse pointer. Voiceover calls it: Mouse Down.
3. Very important! Insure that you are at the top level of the mail account in 
the mailboxes list. Note: for this part, you are better off using the VO keys 
and navigating left or right through the list respectively to find your top 
level for your account. : Listen out for either the words: Collapse or 
Expanded. Again, use the VO keys here. This is where I made the mistake of not 
using them and by doing so, I didn’t here the collapse and expanded information.
4. Once at the top level, perform the: Mouse Pointer command again here. Just 
to insure that it is alined with your mail account in the list.
5. Finally, Perform the: Mouse Down command and hopefully all being well, this 
should force the mailbox to appear in alphabetical order.

Of course, it would be better if Apple addressed this bug but for now its a 
work around and I have found that most often than not, it has successfully 
worked for me. However, your mileage, may vary.

I hope it is successfull  for everyone else. Who are looking to sort the 
Mailboxes from a screen reader point of view and thus, regain order of mailbox 
organisation. !

Have a nice day.

Daniel
