+ Tags are short text notes which may be set on messages. They are useful
+ for classifying messages with your own words. These tags can be used
+ later to find the mails with Quick Search or to manage them with
+ filtering or processing rules, for example.
+ </para><para>
+ Tagged messages are displayed with a yellow background at the top of
+ the Message View. This line shows all tags associated with the
+ message. You can enable the "Tags" column in the Message List, so
+ tagged items can be seen without having to open the message.
+ </para><para>
+ Setting of tags is done by right-clicking on the message in the Message
+ List or by the corresponding option in Message menu. A panel with the
+ existing tags is shown and you can select some of them or just add a
+ new one. Removal of existing tags is also allowed, of course.
+ </para><para>
+ Once tags exist it's even easier, as the context menu allows you to
+ set and unset tags with just one click to the selected messages.
+ Mixed selections of tagged and untagged messages are allowed, and
