Question moving attached emails (".eml") to regular folders

Is there some way/tool/procedure in FastMail to move attached emails, that is, .eml files, to regular folders in FastMail?

Thanks. I did search and camp up nil.

There are two types of "regular folders" in Fastmail. You can copy the .eml attachment to either:
  • Fastmail File Storage
    • When reading the message, select the checkbox to the left of the .eml attachment.
    • Click Save>Save to File Storage, then select the desired folder and click Save.
  • Fastmail Email
    • When reading the message, select the download icon to the right of the .eml attachment (down arrow to a tray).
    • Choose to save and keep the file. The exact details depend on the browser you are using.
    • Open your downloads folder.
      • In Firefox, use the downloads icon (down arrow above a horizontal line) at the top and choose Show all downloads.
      • In Chrome or the new Edge, you will see download details at the bottom of the screen. Use the three dots menu in the upper right and choose Downloads.
      • In all browsers, you can simply use CTL+J to see your downloads.
    • Drag the downloaded .eml file to your Fastmail email message list.
      • You can not drag it directly to a folder in the folder tree.
      • Instead, open the desired destination email folder. Then drag the .eml file into the list of messages.
    • The .eml file will be imported and turned into a regular email message in that folder.

That's a handy tip.
I wasn't aware of that.
Thanks for the info Bill .
