I want to rename and re-order some of the mail folders that appear on the left hand side of the mail application.

Is this possible to do?

Yes, click once on the folder you want to rename to highlight it. Then click
a second time to get an editing cursor.

Is it possible to change the names of the default folders? I want to rename INBOX to Inbox

Also, is there a way to re-order them?

Doesn't look like it. The server expects certain folders to have certain
names, I don't recommend renaming the default.

Folders are listed alphabetically, you can only re-order them by re-naming
them.

Cannot do this.

In 2008, the default account will now show on top. You can re-order folders
YOU create by using symbols like a space, @, €, ! etc to move folders
alphabetically.

In 2008, you can also drag a folder to the Favorites bar in any order you
like. This way folders way down in the list that are favorites will be
easily accessible.

See this page for more help:

If you don't like the way Entourage lists folders, you can use Custom Mail
Views to create your own way of viewing your mail.
