  1. moving email to folders in Windows 10 Mail


    I cannot figure out how to move an email to folders in Windows Mail 10. These are folders that were originally created in a Gmail account and now show up under folders option. I click the three dots in the upper right hand corner of the email panel, select move, and none of my folders I created show up.


    When I click on 'more' under 'folders,' the folders appear. There appears to be no way to drag and drop the emails into the folders.


    Don't know what else to do.


    Thank you.

    :)

    Moving emails from Windows 10 Mail App to O365 Hosted Exchange - with a caveat

    Environment

    • Windows 10
    • Windows 10 integrated Email app
    • Outlook 2019
    • Hosted Exchange in O365
    • A now defunt previous hosting provider
    Problem

    • Moving email in from IMAP mailbox where the server is no longer present. The only copies of company emails are on the employees laptop in Windows 10 mail.
    • A clone of the Device, to allow a test, shows that when I ammend the account details it wipes the existing email.

    I have a situation where a customer had an employee use the free Windows 10 mail app to access a mailbox via IMAP. The email was with a hosting provider that is no longer in business. When we open the app the emails are still there, but I haven't found
    a way to export/move/any other option of getting the emails in Windows 10 mail without the old server being available.

    There are over 12 years of emails contained in the data contained on the laptop in Windows 10 mail app.

    Any suggestions

    Moved from Outlook / Windows 10 / Office 365 for business

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
