Why am I getting an error message when I drag-and-drop an email?

This article applies to:
7.x Briefcase for Windows, Email Manager for Outlook
6.x Briefcase for Windows, Contributor Pro, Email Manager for Outlook

Issue: When trying to drag-and-drop an attachment from an email or a document from a location outside Outlook, you receive the following error:

This issue is typically caused by Corporate IT policies restricting the use of PST files. The Microsoft-approved solution to the policy is to allow trusted applications to override the policy.

Resolution: To enable the override, add the following string value to the registry to allow users to file attachments and documents to SharePoint locations through Colligo Email Manager for Outlook:

Key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\<version>\Outlook\PST\
Value Type:
DWORD
Value Name:  PSTDisableGrowAllowAuthenticodeOverrides
 Value Data:  1
