Move or copy folders

Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access allows you to move and copy folders between other folders. This helps you create and organize your folder hierarchies.

Note  You can't move or copy items between public folders and your Microsoft Exchange mailbox folders. For example, you can't move or copy a public folder into your Inbox or Calendar. Also, if your public folders are spread out over several servers in your organization, it may not be possible to move or copy items between those folders.

  1. To display your Exchange mailbox folders, click Folders on the Navigation Pane. To move or copy a public folder, click Public Folders on the toolbar.
  2. Select the check box next to the folder you want to move or copy, and then, on the toolbar, click Move Button image or Copy Button image.
  3. The Move Folder Picker screen or the Copy Folder Picker screen will open, displaying all available folders. Click the option button next to the destination folder, and then click Apply.

    Note  If the destination folder is a subfolder, it won't be displayed on the Move Folder Picker or Copy Folder Picker screen. To select a subfolder, click a parent folder. Then, if necessary, click a subfolder to see its subfolders, and so on, until you navigate to the appropriate level in your folder hierarchy.
