Default Drag-And-Drop Behavior

When this setting is enabled (set to 1), the default behavior is to move emails to SharePoint when dragged-and-dropped to a PST folder. Dragging-and-dropping with a right-click shows a standard Outlook pop-up menu with Move, Copy, and Cancel options. Pressing the Ctrl key while dragging-and-dropping with a left-click will display this menu as well. If the user clicks Cancel or an email fails during the upload, the emails are moved to the Recovered Items folder.

When this setting is disabled (set to 0), the default behavior is to copy to SharePoint with the emails remaining in the source folder, regardless of success, cancellation, or failure. Dragging-and-dropping with a right-click has the same result as a left-click drag-and-drop.
