Since Outlook 365 was updated I can't drag my email to create a calendar event. I do this nearly every day (often multiple times). Bring it back please!!!!

    I also was struggling with this issue. My work around is to use my "preset" quick step that to "create an appointment". When I have the email selected in outlook and then click on my create appointment quick step, it does create the calendar appointment.

    I have tried dragging the email to the 'My Day' icon as pictured and that isn't working for me either.

    Did you drag it into the panel below the icon? there is a todo and a calendar that you can drag it into.

    When I drag it to the "My Day" area, it looks like it will take it but rejects and creates a draft to the email I am trying to place on the calendar???

    Also, I used to be able to move an event on the calendar. Now, you can not move. You have to delete and repost or duplicate—a major backward move.

    I hate this upgrade.
