There is another way to achieve what you want. First, close SM and make
a backup of your prefs.js. In my current profile there are these lines
in the prefs.js:

user_pref("mail.account.account1.server", "server1");
user_pref("mail.account.account2.identities", "id1");
user_pref("mail.account.account2.server", "server2");
user_pref("mail.account.account3.identities", "id2");
user_pref("mail.account.account3.server", "server3");
user_pref("mail.account.account4.identities", "id3");
user_pref("mail.account.account4.server", "server4");
user_pref("mail.account.account5.identities", "id4");
user_pref("mail.account.account5.server", "server5");
user_pref("mail.account.lastKey", 6);
user_pref("mail.accountmanager.accounts",
"account1,account2,account3,account4,account5");

Edit your prefs.js by changing the order in the last pref. Start SM and
look if the order of accounts is now what you want.

In case you messed up, close SM and replace the modified prefs.js with
the backup.

I admit I haven't done such a manipulation for many years, but I seem to
remember that it worked. Any way, you have your backup. :)

Removing the mail.server.server*.valid account listings work and Iwas 
able to crear a new mail account. Now is there a add-on that will allow 
me to reorder the email accounts in the account pane? I am using SM 
2.49.4. Would the add-on Manually sort folders work?

I had the same problem and also a test-news-account that I did not complete.
So I do:
"Edit" - "Mail and Newsgroup Account Settings"
Selecting one at a time and clicking on the bottom-big-button labelled 
"Remove Account"
It seems that now about:config is cleaned (well correctly cleaned after 
stop-the-start SM).

It's a service provider so I don't think I have access to any logs on the 
server side. I was hoping for logs on my desktop for Seamonkey, since that 
should be more descriptive of the issue. And, since the 'publishing failed' 
message happens almost instantaneously after clicking 'publish' I'm not sure a 
connection was even attempted, so there may not be anything on the server.

It's so weird since this is such a simple situation. There are only 4 basic 
elements involved: server hostname, username, password, and, optionally, the 
directory on the destination. And this exact setup worked flawlessly for years 
before I had to re-install and move my profile backup back into place.

Yes, I was at the latest Seamonkey version before the re-install. Windows 10 
64-bit OS.

I was hoping someone who has access to an ftp server could jump in here, 
I don't.  Do you have appropriate logging set up on the target machine? 
Something like firewall logs or logging of ftp failed access attempts? 
A sniffer is probably overkill.
