Minor New UI How To: Move open message to folder with one click/drag and drop?

Elmo999 · 31 Oct 2012, 09:49 PM

Another great feature of the old interface...

How can I move the message that I am currently reading to a folder?

Old interface: One click on the arrows next to the folder in the folder list.
New UI: ???

I can see that there is a "move to" option above the message but the old way seemed so intuitive and worked the same way in the message list and when a message was open. And since the folder arrows in the message list have been replaced by the possibility to drag and drop messages I guess I am looking for something like dragging and dropping of open messages as well.

Thanks!

I just press 'm' and type the first letters of the folder name, but you're right that one would expect to be able to drag the header or something.

Sorry, but I don't have the time or the ability to remember a whole set of keyboard shortcuts specially as there's no aide-memoir mechanism in place.

Seems with every passing day that we're realising more and more of what's been lost.

A very good interface has been turned into a turkey!
