In this situation, the operation fails. The moved or deleted folder still exists in the original location. However, Outlook does not display an error message to indicate the failure.
Notes
- If you try to move the folder by using the Outlook Web App (OWA), you receive the following error message:The folder couldn't be moved or copied. A folder with the same name might already exist.
