1) I looked a little deeper. Moving messages with left-click is no
problem. I want to copy the messages to another folder. I was presssing
CTL and left-click dragging. The little "+" sign appears indicating
"copying" but only a single file of the multiple selection is
moved.
2) I see now that if I press SHIFT + CTL while left-click dragging,
the multiple selection is copied.
Is method 1) above specifically for single file drag-copying while
2) is for multiple? I'm used to a single method for both.
Thanks, Ali, for pointing out the tool tip information; it escaped
my attention. It is adequate to show what's going on.
Best regards,
