Reposition Smart Folder Section on the sidebar
The Smart Folders are a great idea and can be very efficient. However in its current position they are quickly pushed out of sight when you have plenty of mail folders. If this happens the usage of smart folders will simply decrease and somehow forgotten. My suggestion is that the whole Smart Folder section can be moved wherever one prefers to position it. In my case I would love to have Smart Folders on top of the sidebar as these would be my preferred folders to watch.

Would be great benefit to be able to reposition or tag smart folder as a favourite.

This ask has been coming for years, Microsoft, PLEASE at least allow SmartFolders to be added to Favorites on the Mac version, even in the most updated, 2020 redesigned new version you cannot do this.

Please make a revision to allow folders on the sidebar to be moved up or down as needed. I have several folders ans always have to scroll all the way down for access while my email headers just sit in the way. Thank you.

Prioritise this as it is a worthwhile endeavour seeing as it speeds up workflow

I would really appreciate to get the Smart Folder to the top, as I'd like to filter by unread mails and switch back and forth.

Either capability to reposition the Smart Folder, or to "Allow smart folders to be added to Favorites" would give similar capability:
