Hello Karim,

Glad to see you here :)

I assume you are going to drag the email onto a pane. Ages ago we gave this link in a similar situation: https://www.mail-archive.com/delphi@elists.org/msg02237.html.

Also I have .NET code. In case the above doesn't help, you may want to check https://www.add-in-express.com/creating-addins-blog/2012/03/26/outlook-task-pane-drag-drop/.

Hi,

Thank you for your answer but I need to drag the mail out of the inbox and not on a pane.

Hello Karim,

If you drag the email outside of Outlook than the add-in can't participate in this: the drop target should accept the drop and process it. Otherwise, the email will be processed by the default mechanism built in Windows.
