Description Electric Prism 2015-04-27 21:25:20 UTC 
I sometimes recieve emails to my personal email that are business.

In that case in Thunderbird I drag the email from my personal email into my business email thereby moving the email over IMAP to my business email account.

I would like to request that this functionality be added to Geary as I find it to be a lifesaver and a feature that makes Thunderbird shine.

Additionally I recently moved folders and thousands of emails off of Gmail to my personal server, this functionality would help users from being trapped by email service providers suchas Google as emails could be moved to private servers. This functionality is highly desired, thank you.

Pretty sure this is a duplicate of Bug 743356.

Ah yes, same thing. I'll keep this one since it has a dupe and a use case already. Thanks!

This is being worked on over at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/geary/issues/645, so closing in favour of that.
