I want to be able to drag and drop an Outlook mail message (Outlook 2003)
onto a windows form (C# 2003) so that my application can then save the file
(in the same was as if I were to drag and drop on the desktop). Anyone able
to help me with how to achieve this?
 
Yes, use the standard Drag and Drop events for the control which should
accept them.

The problem that you'll run into is that you can't get the body or
attachemtns for the email.

The only way to get that data would be to write a plugin for outlook.

So no way that you know of to "Save As" the dragged item and persist to an
Outlook Item file (.msg)?
