may be some unorthodox request and it came up earlier:
Can't the tagging be stored in the headers of the individual message?

Then it's really unique to that specific message. It also won't have
any problems if you copy the message to another folder and
untag the copy only.

Some kind of "X-Kolab-Message-Tag" header. An "external" message tag needs 
always to be synchronized to the current mail folder content and I think
its annoying for the user if the tag gets lost somehow.

Cheers,
