[Feature Request] Drag mail into group
MicrosoftSonny happy to say that we are working to support such scenario in the near term, in the meantime a workaround via Outlook 2016 is to leverage the following keyboard shortcut to copy messages to group's inbox: Crtl + C & Crtl + V
Any news on this matter? We're struggling to find a way to have old emails available in our Office 365 group shared mailbox, we tested several add-in and tried many workaround, but still this apparently so simple task seems impossible to achieve!

Federico we are working on this but its too soon to share a timeline at this stage.
You're a lifesaver cfiessinger! I've been searching for that everywhere.
It seems to work in Outlook 2016, the message moves to the conversation.
However, I'm not seeing the email message in the OWA view of the group conversation which makes me think that others won't be able to see the message, i.e. it is only within that group folder on my local Outlook?
I don't think it will 'work' for teams if others can't see the emails we store in the Group folder.
- Ethan LiHi Brian,
Sorry about that. Unfortunately, this seems to be a bug. Copying and pasting or drag-and-dropping existing emails into a group is currently not supported.
However, we are currently looking into supporting drag-and-drop, with no timelines.Thanks Ethan Li. Is there a User Voice where we can submit as an idea and vote for this?
