I just noticed that while dragging files to a Folder saved in Overflow, message from Mail do not work.

I typically save email receipts in a Finder folder, and would like to be able to do so from within Overflow.

    Hi George,

    Do you mean dragging an actual email in from Mail, or an attachment in an email message?

    I hadn't tried dragging an attachment, but that would be nice as well. I was originally referring to an actual email message.

    EDIT: attachments already work, but not the messages themselves.

    George,

    Okay, that is what I would have expected. Overflow cannot store links to email messages, although it is an interesting idea.

    I don't want to store the links in Overflow, I have a folder in Overflow ("Receipts") and I want to be able to drag a message from Mail into that folder shortcut.

    I want to add the message to a folder in the Finder, which has a shortcut in Overflow.

    I see, that is slightly different - thanks for the clarification.
