I used the search function and got results. How can I copy these results to a specific folder. Only the "move to" option is found available for search results.

Use the Search messages under Ctrl+Shift+F. Once you have the search resolved how you like you can save the search as a "virtual" folder. No mail is moved, but they do appear in the search folder when you open it.

If using the global search you can "open as a list" in the middle of the top of the returned messages and then act on the message by selecting them and dragging and dropping them to the folder of your choice.

Thanks, Matt,

Just figured out how as your described as the 1st method. Haven't yet tried out the 2nd method. Will make an attempt and let you know what what happens. Thank you for your advice!
