It is possible to select more than one tag using CTRL key. This way one can display messages associated with all selected tags. The tag-cloud can be found under the :ref:`folder list ` in the Email view. It is showing all available tags. .. image:: _static/_skin/tags-cloud.png Creating a tag ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Tags can be created, either from the manage menu (see above) or from the dropdown menu in the mail view.
