User level: Level 1 (4 points)Please help. I seem to have lost the ability to individually select emails for moving to folders. on my MacBookPro I have it still on my iPhone 17 and on both iPads but nothing I have read seems to help. I also don't seem to have (or at the least it's not in Library/Preferences) the file com.apple.mail.plist either.
Any help would be gratefully received. Thank you

— have you shut down and restarted the mac, and compare your results(?)
—Drag and drop is the simplest(?)
—alternatively Control click your select email>>Move To(?)
—Quit mail and relaunch the the Mail.app holding the Shift key down and compare your results(?)
