Use

When using functions such as create or move folders, documents, or distribution lists, you can select the storage location for the object that has been processed using this function. When selecting a target folder, you can call a dialog box that offers the following functions:

Input help and search help for selecting an existing folder
Option to create a new folder
For documents and distribution lists there is also an option to append the object as an attachment of an existing document.
