Moving Mail toolbar icons around

A while back a number of people were having trouble doing this and the solution was to reboot in Safe Mode. All you have to do is hold down the Apple (Command) key while clicking on whichever icon you want to move and it will "unstick." Then you can move it to whichever position you want on the toolbar.
