    Rod-F I have the same issue and this is the only fix I've been able to do.

    Delete and re-add the accounts in the order you want them to appear. When you re-add an account, it will appear at the bottom of the list.

    I feel your pain, I have 5 different Microsoft email accounts on my phone so keeping track can be a nightmare!

    This is a rather hacky fix but until press and hold functionality is added, might have to do!

Looks like nobody responded since May, too bad. Probably will dump the app and see if they can address the question some day in the future

Yes, you can.  I just did it.  Go to Settings (the gear icon).  Under Mail Accounts, click the pencil.  Each account will have double lines on the right hand side.  Use them to order the accounts the way you want.  Click the checkmark.  Get out of settings, and check the order.  If they're sill in the original order, close out the app and re-open it.  They should be in the desired order.Tony_Arch
