I usually set Thunderbird up to thread (store a copy of) replies with the original replied-to message and was wondering if there were any way to apply tags to messages when sending.
Is the fact that labels aren't applied on sending related to missing functionality more core to Thunderbird, or is this a design choice of TaQuilla…
…at a minimum it would be great for the tags of the original replied-to message to be coppied over to the reply message (although I can see cases where this might not be totally desireable).
Better yet would be to have tags applied heuristically by TaQuilla to sent messages in the same way as they are to received messages.
There is no capability to add tags on sending in Thunderbird. This is reported and briefly discussed in bug 370260. It is also mentioned there that the Tag Toolbar extension provides this capability. I can also see how your feature to copy tags to replied messages could have value, but obviously does not exist in the program at the moment.
As for TaQuilla, I can't say that leaving out sent messages was a design decision, I've never really considered it for some reason. I've recently added a lot of hooks into the core Bayes code to support TaQuilla, I'll think about whether it might make sense to do that for sent messages as well. At some level though it seems odd to add this advanced Taquilla capability, when the core program does not even support the basic tagging of sent messages.
Tagging is somewhat underdeveloped in Thunderbird. I know that improved tagging support was a major design issue in PostBox. I just checked, and they do include the abaility to tag outgoing messages.
