Can't move outlook items in explorer view.
I'm trying to move folders in document libraries around within a site collection and I was receiving an error stating 'cannot read from source file or disk'. I narrowed the file, that was causing the error, down to an Outlook Item (.msg) file. When I unselect the Outlook Item I am able to move the folder with no problem. So my question is, why can't I move this file type and is there a way to move this file type?

Hi, I have this issue not only on msg file, but also pdf file, Office files work fine. If you are using MOSS 2007, you can go to Site Actions -> Content and Structure to move list items from the source list to the target if they’re within the same site collection. For details about actions which are available in “Content and Structure”, please refer to: Work with site content and structure http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepointserver/HA101317231033.aspx Thanks & Regards.Lily Wu
