New Outlook doesn't allow you to drop most files like photos between accounts. What a joke! You have to save to your computer files then you can drag it to send an email. doesn't allow cut and paste?

whoever designed the new outlook back tracked 20 years. But even then outlook 2014 is simpler and easier to use. was such a great product now i have 4 separate accounts that cant file together.

You should reinstate the old then we can get on with everyday activities efficiently. Im right clicking here for spelling errors but you changed to left in your new version. Nice change not!

Fix the problems with sharing between accounts and eliminate having to download all files to move or look at them.

Please...... or im looking to change its bugging me that much.

Please please please fix

    Hi @Alistair Black ,

    Welcome to our forum!

    Do you mean that you cannot move attachment between accounts in New Outlook?

    If so, as i know, it's not available in New Outlook. If you need to use this feature, i'm afraid that you need to switch to Legacy Outlook.

    Please kindly understand that many functions are not designed at present. To get this feature more quickly, I have found a post in feedback collection website and you could vote for it. Many features of our current products are designed and upgraded based on customers’ feedback. You can also make suggestions on that website and hope Microsoft will notice this in the future.
