where are these $label's defined? Are they defined in the dovecot

IMAP flags are annoying since they are limited to a subset of ASCII 
(e.g. no spaces), thus the need to do flag mappings on the client side.

This is because of pre 2.0 Thunderbird versions used labes. Thunderbird
kept this for compatibility reasons.

I think they are stored in the user's prefs.js. Dovecot stores the sring
received from the client.

Interpreting keywords

2015-12-02 Thread Mark Foley
I've marked several messages in Thunderbird using tags. Tags used are:

0 Important
1 Work
2 To Do
3 Personal
4 Later

The messages so tagged appear to have the flag fields set in the IMAP Maildir:

cur/1449002162.8993_0.mail:2,Sb
cur/1449001929.28087_0.mail:2,Sad

I've looked in dovecot-keywords and find:

$ more dovecot-keywords 
 0 $label1
 1 $label2
 2 $label3
 3 $label4
 
I assume these "$label" values are macros that possibly refer to "Important", 
"Work", etc., but
where are these $label's defined? Are they defined in the dovecot configs 
somewhere or does the
mail client just "know" what these correspond to?
