Hello,
If some message is attached to e-mail (.eml)
I cannot move it to some message folder (e.g. Inbox).
In MS Outlook this stuff works.
You can drag and drop attached mail.
BR,
Matko

Reproducible: Always

Yes, I can confirm.

As workaround you can drag attached email on your desktop and after drag this email into your target inbox.

Phil would you have interest in fixing this one ?

I'll look into this.
So, if you open a message with eml attachment you want to drag the attachment to the inbox.

Phil, can you have another look? ;)
(I will move this bug to core bug 11013 of which this is a duplicate.)

Exactly :)

I've been traveling since my last comment which means no access to the development system only my iPad so can't help. I have a mac air with me but no help here.
Wondering how odd this will be as the attached message doesn't belong in the inbox and how this affects imap.
