- Release the mouse button or trackpad to drop the emails into the new folder.
Method 2: Right-Click (or Control-Click)

Additional Troubleshooting Steps
- Check if the folder you're trying to move the emails to is empty. If it is, try moving the emails to a different folder.
- Ensure that the folder you're trying to move the emails to is not set as a "Smart Folder" (which can't be moved to).
- Try restarting the Mail app or your Mac to see if that resolves the issue.
- If you're using a third-party email client or plugin, try disabling it to see if it's causing the issue.
If none of these methods work, please provide more details about your issue, such as:
- The version of macOS and Mail app you're using
- The type of email account you're using (e.g., iCloud, Gmail, Exchange)
