Is there a way to reorder labels in Gmail? There is one specific label I need to access more than the others and I would like it at the top.
I'm using Airmail 2 as my local IMAP client connected to my email running on Google Apps for Work.

Gmail doesn't provide a way to reorder labels. They are listed in strictly alphabetical order.
What I have done is put a relatively unobtrusive punctuation character in the front of the label. For example:
_followup!important+client
That way they flow to the top. You can do a similar thing to drop labels to the bottom, all depending on whether the character is sorted before or after letters.

You can also use the braille blank character "⠀", which will not be stripped by gmail and will still bring labels to the top. – Miguel Bartelsman Aug 30 '19 at 14:35
