I am able to drag and drop a message from old Outlook into Telerik File Explorer, but I can not do that in new Outlook. I am not sure if Telerik File Explore support that. And does Telerik File Explore support copy paste out look messages.

Hi Dongwei,

RadFileExplorer does not support copying and pasting files directly from Outlook. This limitation exists because browsers like Chrome and Firefox cannot interpret the proprietary clipboard formats used by Outlook.

We recommend using the drag-and-drop feature, which works seamlessly with the old Outlook. If copy-paste is essential, it would require functionality that is not achievable in a purely web-based solution.

Hi Dongwei,

Thank you for your feedback!

At the moment, this feature is not supported in the new Outlook. However, you can vote for its implementation on the Microsoft Feedback Portal under the topic - Drag and Dropping Files.

For additional details, you can refer to the following discussions:

We encourage you to share your thoughts on the feedback portal to help prioritize this feature for future updates.
