Hi.

I am wondering if (and how) it is possible to change the order in which my current mail accounts are listed on the iPod touch?

I can't seem to drag them up and down, but I'm hoping there's a way to do that. I have "Gmail," "MobileMe" and one other account listed in that order, and I'd like to have "MobileMe" listed on top.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Dai

Its not the most beautiful solution but here is a link showing how to do it through i-tunes

I don't mean to take credit for this, I would have given a link but ilounge wont let me

One thing that bugs me about the iPhone’s email program is the inability to rearrange the order of email accounts to my liking.

Unfortunately there’s no “Edit” button like Phone Favorites to drag names up or down to reorder them.

But there is a way to reorder your email accounts to your satisfaction. Here’s how:

1. Plug in your iPhone and launch iTunes.
2. Select your iPhone in the Devices column on the left, then click the Info tab at the top of the screen.
3. Click “Sync selected mail accounts:” if it isn’t already selected.
4. Uncheck any mail accounts that may be selected except the mail account you want to appear at the top of your email accounts list.
5. Click Sync.
6. When iTunes finishes syncing leave the prior mail account checked then check the mail account you want to appear as the next account on your email accounts list.
7. Click Sync.
8. Repeat step 6 for each additional mail account until you’ve synced them all.

Will this also work for the touch?
