Sort Mail folders GMAIL account

My folders in the mail side bar are not in alphabetical order and when I create a new folder it adds it to the bottom of the list. This occurs for my Gmail account , it does OK for my Yahoo account

They are in alpha order when I check in my WEB account.

Is there a way to get them in alpha order in the side bar?

I have High Sierra V 10.13.6

Thank you.

MacBook Pro, macOS High Sierra (10.13.1)

My Gmail folders aren't in the correct order I added folders in Gmail using macOS Mail. The new folders work, but refuse to be in alphabetical order with the other folders. I've tried everything, with no results. Thanks in advance for your help.

Organize e-mail folders alphabetically On my Mac? Hello friends, how can I organize alphabetically the many folders for e-mails stored on my Mac (M1 Big Sur Beta 11.3)? As I manually add a new folder for e-mails, within a general folder with a theme, the new subfolder that I add is randomly in the middle of the others and is not sorted correctly from A to Z. I have to move it manually if I want it in the correct position alphabetically. Is there a way to do this automatically? Thanks. Note: it is not the individual e-mails that I want to sort, but folders with e-mails and folders within folders, stored On my Mac.
