Move Message with Attachment from one Mailbox to another problem

Hi,
starting with Exchange 2013 we have following odd thing. 
(That happens with Outlook 2010 aswell as Outlook 2013). 
My mailbox has several other mailboxes mounted aswell. (using Full Access at ECP Settings), aswell as one separate Exchange Mailbox with own User/Password. 
Now, when I have an Email with an attachment (like Word, .jpg, whatever), I used to move it to another mailbox by using "drag & drop". 
The mail was moved to the mailbox without noticable changes. 
Starting with Exchange 2013, the Mail is changed into Rich Text. That means, the attachment now appears somewhere within the message, instead as real attachment. Some attachments are also lost, and as the message was moved, the only way to recover it is
using our external Email Archive. 
Is this a bug, or didn't I see any option that results in this odd behaviour?
Moving to a different folder does work as expected, but not to another mailbox.
Thanks
Patrick 

Based on some research we have decided to create a workaround as all mails got converted from HTML to Rich Text when moving from User Mailbox to a PST(Archive).
We have built an add-in for end-users to archive based on the following Outlook-VBA
Option Explicit
Sub MoveToFolder()
Dim objApp As Outlook.Application
Dim strPath As String
Dim objNS As NameSpace
Dim objFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim olCurrExplorer As Outlook.Explorer
Dim olCurrSelection As Outlook.Selection
Dim olCurrMailItem As MailItem
Dim m As Integer
'pick destination folder
Set objApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set objNS = objApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set objFolder = objNS.PickFolder
'get selected mails
Set objNS = objApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set olCurrExplorer = objApp.ActiveExplorer
Set olCurrSelection = olCurrExplorer.Selection
For m = 1 To olCurrSelection.Count
Set olCurrMailItem = olCurrSelection.item(m)
On Error Resume Next
olCurrMailItem.Move objFolder
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
With olCurrMailItem
' due this week flag
.MarkAsTask olMarkThisWeek
' sets a specific due date
.TaskDueDate = Now + 3
.FlagRequest = "Call "
.Save
.FlagStatus = olFlagComplete
End With
olCurrMailItem.Move objFolder
End If
Next m
End Sub
for us it was important to have the mails still in HTML Formats as some customers are sending embedded images in the mail-body which are removed when the mail where converted to Rich Text.
For people who doesn't care in which format an mail gets archived another workaround is to Flag the Message with an follow up action, then unflag (complete the follow up) and users are able to move the messages but still they would be converted from HTML
to Rich Text.
Strange enough that with a simple VBA move event the message will stay in HTML Format we are happy to found a solution and maybe someone else can use it.

  • How to move tables with data from one client to another

    Hello friends
    I have 2 clients 001 and 002.
    I have created a table with lots of data on client 001.
    I have to get the same table on 002 also with the same data.
    Is there an easier way of transfering this data from one table to another?
    I would appreciate any feedback on this.
    I know that mappings etc., can be done using the export and import of tpz file. So I want to know if there is any similar thing to transfer a table with data.
    THanks
    Ram

    hi
    thanks for the response
    We are working on a sandbox system for demo purpose.
    Actually we have two different group of people using two different clients created on the same server.
    Our group is using client 001 and another group is using client 002.
    We don't want the changes that one group does to the table to affect the other.
    Our group has created a z-table and have entered considerable amount of data.
    However, the other group also need to create the same table with the same data.
    So to avoid double work, we were trying to see if there is a way to copy the table with data created on 001 to 002.
    Any suggestions / feedback will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Ram

    The Imap account does not need to be moved, sign in on the new machine, your mail will be there.
    Does this mean even though these mails had been downloaded to the first Mac, they are still stored online too
    Yes, Imap systems store all mail on the server, all connected clients are synchronized to the server (the mail itself stays on the server)
    ... regarding the POP accounts. Do you simply want the contents are or you planning on continued use of these accounts on the new machine?
    Continued use.
    Export each mailbox from the old machine to the desktop, to do so select a mailbox, rght click and choose Export, repeat for all others. Move the mailboxes to the new machine'sdesktop.
    I suggest setting up the new accounts before importing the mail from the old machine.
    In mail choose File>Import Mailboxes, choose the ones on the desktop (one at a time) a new mailbox will appear in Mail called Imported, you can move mail from there back to the correct mailbox in the POP accounts.

  • How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?

    How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?  I set up my itunes account in the United States and now I live in England.  I would like to transfer my purchases from my US account to my British account and then download them onto my new ipod.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes and I have updated my Windows 7 operating system.  I have tried to get in touch with apple and the advisor said he could not help me.  Ideas? 

    Before you change the country, note the following:
    - you must use any remaining store credit on your account
    - download all purchased content
    - ensure you have no current rentals(if you do, you'll have to wait for them to expire)
    - provide a new payment(such as a credit or debit card) associated with a valid billing address in the UK or an iTunes Gift Card purchased in the UK
    - content purchased from the iTunes Store is country-specific. If you wish to upgrade any of your iTunes Store content to iTunes Plus, you'll need to do this before you change countries. The content you purchased while your account was set to the previous country will not be eligible for upgrade once you've changed countries.
    - after you change countries, you will no longer receive application update notifications in iTunes for the apps you purchased in your original country. However, you'll still receive update notifications on your iOS device for any applications installed on it. In addition, you'll be able to download previously purchased applications again for free if they are available on your new country's store. You will not be charged and the download will not appear on your Purchased page. If a previously purchased application is not available in your new country, you will not be able to download it again for free.
    - If you have an iTunes Match subscription, you can't change countries until the subscription has expired.
    - If you have purchased a Season Pass, you cannot change the country associated with your account until that season is done airing and the last episode of the season has been added to the iTunes Store.
    Taking the above into consideration, here's how to change your country:
    1. Open iTunes and click Sign In.
    2. Enter your iTunes Store account name and password, then click Account Info.
    3. On the Apple Account Information page, click Change Country or Region.
    4. Enter the updated information and save your changes.

  • How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process?

    How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process? The source Macbook (OS 10.4.11 and iPhoto 6.0.6 (3.2.2.)) is with my husband in Germany, the target MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.5, iPhoto 11) is with me in Japan. Thanks for your help.

    I copied the iPhoto Library to a CD and from there to the new MacBook
    If you copied the library to the CD via the Finder it would be no different than the methods Terence suggested.  If you used the Share ➙ Burn menu option from inside iDVD you'll get a mini library that has to be accessed from the open library and the events/alubums copied into the destination library.  Not the same as the other methods.
    The Share ➙ Burn method is no longer supported with iPhoto 9 and later.

    All - i need to move all my music from one pc to another - does anyone know how to do this? i am not very technically minded and ever time i try to look it up i get very confused! thanks in advance.

    I set up a home network and transferred it using that. See if you can get a PC-savvy friend to help you, or hire someone to do this. It is nearly impossible to talk someone through this over the internet.
    Windows has some built-in helps to tell you how to set up a home network and turn on file sharing. If you don't understand that, get someone to help!

  • How do I move an app icon from one page to another?

    I would like to organize my Ipad2 but can figure out how to move the app icon from one page to another.

    Tap and hold down on an app icon until it wiggles. Then hold down on the icon and drag it about halfway over to the next screen and just hold it there for a second or two and the app will jump to the next page. Do it slowly and just hold the app on the edge of the screen. Don't try to drag it over quickly. It takes a little practice.
    Tap the home button when you are done and the apps will stop wiggling.

    Open picture B, the one you wish to select the hair from to add to the picture.
    Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the hair. You will see an outline ("marching ants") once the selection is complete
    Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the hair to the clipboard
    Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
    Use the move tool to position the hair from picture B.
    In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and the hair (B) on a separate layer.
