Thunderbird 2

Thunderbird 2 has just been released and I'm pleased to see it includes a feature I've been waiting quite a long time for, namely the ability to tag messages. This is something I find much more natural than using folders to arrange email because often the same message should appear in more than one folder. Whilst it isn't possible to place the same message in multiple folders without copying them it is possible to tag each message with multiple tags.
