Symptom
You want to synchronize an email from MS Outlook to multiple accounts in SAP Hybris Cloud for Customer (C4C). The email will be synchronized to the first selected Cloud for Customer account.
Now if you synchronize the same email again to another C4C account, the email will be synchronized to the new account but at the same time the email will be removed from the previous account in C4C.
Environment
SAP Hybris Cloud for Customer

This can be reproduced in two different ways.
I. Synchronisation via Drag and Drop in MS Outlook Add-in:
- Log in to the SAP Outlook Add-in for Cloud for Customer.
- Open the Side Panel of the SAP Outlook Add-In.
- Search for an account in the Side Panel and drag the desired email to that account.
- The email gets synchronized to the account in Cloud for Customer.
- Search for another account in the Side Panel and drag the same email to the new account.
- The email gets synchronized to the new account in Cloud for Customer but the email will be removed from the previous associated account.
II. Synchronisation via Add Email functionality in MS Outlook Add-in:

- In the new window, click on Add Reference and select Account.

- The email will be synchronized to the new account in Cloud for Customer but the email will be removed from the previous associated account.
Cause
The SAP Outlook Add-in currently only supports linking to one account as this is the most used scenario.
