I'm thinking that drag and drop is part of the GUI, not part of Exchange or Outlook. &nbsp;The only way I know of &nbsp;that you can keep someone from dragging something is not allowing them access. &nbsp;Tweakui or some other registry hack may disallow D&amp;D from the desktop but I don't know of any sure way to do that.

We are trying to prevent employee from dragging and dropping into public folders because it created security problem when a personal email was wrongly dropped into a public folder.<br />
<br />
Because the users can only post and NOT allowed to delete it was difficult for the poster to retrace her step.<br />
<br />
Question: What will be the best way to still allow people to POST and using the standard approach and DISALLOW drag and drop? When you drag and drop, one can easily drop into a wrong public space.<br />
<br />
Will appreciate your help, thanks.<br />

Prevent Exchange public folder from drag and drop for security reasons

Interactions between email servers and clients are governed by email protocols. The three most common email protocols are POP, IMAP and MAPI. Most email software operates under one of these (and many products support more than one).  The correct protocol must be selected, and correctly configured, if you want your email account to work.

Email Protocols

Microsoft Visual C++ (often abbreviated as MSVC or VC++) is an integrated development environment (IDE) product from Microsoft for the C, C++, and C++/CLI programming languages. It features tools for developing and debugging C++ code, especially code written for the Microsoft Windows API, the DirectX API, and the Microsoft .NET Framework. Many applications require redistributable Visual C++ packages to function correctly and are often installed independently of applications, allowing multiple applications to make use of the package while only having to install it once
