Ignore Primary Key on Insert
Outlook inserts a new Item during Copy/Paste (or Move to Folder) operations, all values from original item are copied to the new item.

You can overrule this behaviour by setting IgnorePrimaryKeyOnInsert value to 0 (zero)
Path: HKEY HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Genius@Work\GeniusConnect\Folders\<Folder ID>\
Key: IgnorePrimaryKeyOnInsert Type: REG_DWORD
Value:1(decimal) or 0 (1=default)
