I can’t explain why you got 436 tagged emails after tagging one, but
regarding tag transfer through the server, according to Benny it should
work for most email severs, except for Exchange-based (which is
unfortunately my case). If it does not work for you, and you are not
using Exchange, Benny may be able to debug it.

My comment will not answer your question, but it reflects several
months of using colored flags and tags. My impression is that tags
are more useful : they can be used to sort the messages, they can be
searched for throughout all mailboxes, they are recognized by most
servers (so transferable from one computer to the other (except with
Exchange), unlike colored flags), they allow a relatively easy
visualization of who sent what,
Thanks. This finally made me figure out tags, and yes, they seem
quite handy! The "T" modifier in Search View is great! Thanks again.
Can you elaborate on the T modifier for a MailMate newbie coming from
Eudora? I am trying to come to grips with flags and tags and having
fits and frustrations.
I just tried to tag a single email with 1 tag and 436 emails got
tagged with 2 tags, and I can't undo that so far. On the plus side, I
got one smart mailbox that shows all tagged emails and another that
shows all flagged emails.
Having only keyboard shortcuts for dealing with flags and tags is
really a major shortcoming for me. I am not only overloaded with
things to remember as it is, I also prefer using mouse over keyboard.
Are tags really freely transferred through IMAP servers? The
documentation says that IMAP tags are only reliable. I was watching
communication with one or two of my server and they showed the list of
accepted tags, which were the standard IMAP tags as listed in the
Mailmate doc.
