Move, copy, flag or archive messages you name by message_id, in one inbox. Get message ids from email_read first. Every action acts only on the ids you pass and is undone by another call: a move by a move back, archive by a move into the Inbox, flag by the opposite flag, and a copy leaves the original untouched. Copy follows the CONNECTOR, not the address: inbox_list reports it per inbox as capabilities.copy, true for every IMAP inbox (a Gmail address connected over IMAP included) and for Outlook, false only on the Gmail API connector, which has no copy operation at all. On Gmail a move adds the destination label and removes INBOX, leaving other labels in place; moving a message OUT of Trash or Spam into a real label also clears TRASH/SPAM, so it is a genuine restore rather than a labelled message still queued for deletion. To move everything matching a search instead of a list of ids, use email_search_and_move, which is its own tool because a wrong filter there relocates a whole inbox. Needs manage:folders; deleting is the separate email_delete tool.
