That depends on your IMAP servers. I don't know how exactly MM handles tags/flags for IMAP accounts on servers that don't have full keyword support.

They are saved in the local database index files only. In other words, they are *lost* if rebuilding the database and/or refetching emails from the server(s).

With the exception of Exchange IMAP (which have numerous other issues) I believe IMAP servers without some support for IMAP keywords is relatively rare.

I still have on my todo list to also add support for mapping tags to file attributes. If combined with improved robustness when MailMate needs to rebuild the database (or when some Exchange IMAP server suddenly decides to reset all its UIDVALIDITY values) then that would also make storing tags locally only more robust...
