is rumored to have said:
Whether tags transfer to another device depends on the IMAP server.
This was discussed in the past. Tags are not native to IMAP and
special keywords are used to pass them on. Unfortunately, not all
server programs support them or support them fully.
It's worth noting that Hotmail/OutlookLive/MS365/ExchangeOnline is one
of the IMAP implementations that skipped implementation of user-defined
keywords, which MM needs for the feature it calls Tags. Also, GMail
smudges together the concept of keywords with that of folders in a
manner completely inconsistent with the IMAP specification, so there may
be issues if your mail is there as well.

Hi,
I followed [these
instructions](https://lists.freron.com/mailmate/2016-January/005542.html)
on the forum from 2016 for “syncing” the settings between two
devices (*i.e.*, copying the `.plist` files when MailMate is shut
down on both devices). This worked for most things except that the
messages I have tagged on the source device are still not tagged on
the destination device. Do I need to copy over the Database folder
or the Messages folder for that to work?
Thanks
—Jeff
