I have found a workaround to the external MOVE operation. DrgDrag()

with a flag not to delete the actual file, just clean up the containers;
the external drop operation does the file deletion.

Have you tried dropping one of these emails on a program's icon (e.g. a
text editor)? You may not like the result.

Ah crap! That's right. The only positive aspect is that the message file
is still there and the display can be re-synch'd.

There is a problem when dropping multiple message onto the desktop, though.
It seems to cause some dementia in the WPS: the default icon disappears
(no icon at all for the object), and some objects cannot be moved.

This is a bug in WPDatafile (or at least in its handling of subclasses).

Not likely to be fixed any time soon, then.
