Hi guys,
I just checked for an update. So the original roadmap item has been canceled and moved to another one with ETA Q4 2019. That means we have to wait another year :) I would like to suggest to support the effort to promote folders creation option as well, because without folders it is useless anyhow. As of now I believe it is top 3rd rated feature in UserVoice.
See more here https://www.microsoft.com/en-nz/microsoft-365/roadmap?rtc=1&filters=&searchterms=27473%2COutlook%2Cfor%2CWindows%3A%2CDrag%2Cand%2Cdrop%2Cemails%2Cinto%2Ca%2CGroup.
Cheers Tomas

Do you mean so you can categorise Office 365 groups together? If so then yes, big thumbs up. My main client now has 400+ Office 365 groups and the list is unmanageable. Why so many? Because each project gets it's own group and they work on a lot of projects which sometimes last just six months. - Scott_WhitmoreJan 16, 2019Brass ContributorWow, that is far too long. This feature is critical for our teams adoption for Office 365.
- Helios CommsJan 16, 2019Iron ContributorSame here - it is simply not acceptable to tell users to "Use the web interface". I really do support Microsoft (have for 30+ years) but sometimes I see "New features" appearing in Office and my response is "Stop adding features very few need/want and fix the obvious faults & omissions in the existing code" :-( This is the single top wanted feature by my main client.
