Emails dragged from Classic Outlook to folders in tree get moved to "Deleted Items" while copying

Post by Nuno »

I noticed this issue a while back but was struggling to reproduce it, as it seemed quite random. Now I think I might have finally managed to find out what could be happening.

I often drag emails from Classic Outlook to XYplorer. Recently, I noticed some emails were being moved to the "Deleted Items" folder even though I wasn't pressing any modifier key.
It appears they are moved to the "Deleted Items" folders when I drop them in a folder in the tree view instead of on the list. It happens this way even though the tooltip that accompanies the pointer while dragging always shows a blue "copy" instead of the orange "move".

BTW: if the email is being dropped on the list, dragging while pressing the shift key ("move") does not cause the emails being sent to "Deleted Items".

XYplorer v28.10.0300 (Win 10, 125% scaling)
Classic Outlook (version 2512, Microsoft)

Indeed, good find! :tup: The cause was a tB bug. The work-around comes with the next beta.
