I think you get all these thing in context menu .
"remove all tags" doesn't delete tags but it reset tag value to '0' (
normal ).

Goto Tools>Options>Display>Tags.

did you consult the knowledge base?


http://kb.mozillazine.org/Tags has info, but by no means covers everything.

and also by typing a number. example:
type "1" - tag 1 is on
type "1" - tag 1 is off

don't think so, since you can assign multiple tags to single message.

I usually use "saved searches" as stated in the KB article quoted above,
but if I apply multiple tags to a newsgroup message, tags are correctly
added to the message, but the saved search is not updated, while in mail
massages with new multiple tags, saved searches are updated.

Is it a known issue or what?

Any message can hold one tag at a time and right click on any tagged
message > tag > remove all tags will make that message tag less .

Hello there,
I am running Linux version of Thunderbird. If I right click on the
actual message and create a tag from there I cannot delete in the
Display Tag Menu as it shown there. I accidently made a tag "Take
Note" in yuk yellow and need to remove the Tag. Anyone got a fix to
delete the Tag if added by right clicking the message.
Thanks in Advance.

I meant to say "I cannot delete in the Display Tag Menu as it is "NOT"
shown there.

Thanks.
