    I would really like to be able to use labels as proper tags as suggested in the documentation for protonmail. The indication from the docs is that tags are intentionally not a folder, but rather a tag that can be applied regardless of folder. A piece of metadata attached to the message itself. Presumably, given you can filter across all email for that, this is already indexed in some way.

    I have a few use-cases for examples. I have labels like "Notifications" and "Ads" to note broad categories of emails. I have labels for email accounts I am migrating to Protonmail, to make it easy to identify what is still using those accounts.

    Lastly, I have a label of "Expiring" since there's no way to do filtering, searching, or sorting based on expiration.

    First, this would be extremely helpful when troubleshooting Sieve scripts. I initially realized this searching wasn't possible when I was trying to figure out why some emails were falling through the sieve filter in a way that resulted in being tagged with both Ads and Notifications -- which shouldn't happen. I wanted to search for emails that have both to begin troubleshooting but couldn't.

    I can search for one, but because of the UI limitations I cannot see in the index which ones also have the other tag, because I can only see one tag and then +x for how many other tags are present. So I have to click through one at a time to find examples.

    I can't even filter Notifications into a folder instead and solve it that way, because searches are only against "All Mail". I can limit to a Folder, but then I can't search for a label.

    My plan for tagging anything sieve marks for expiration with Expiring was to be able to review this. To view key combinations like "folder:Invoices label:Expiring" or "label:Notifications label:Expiring" to do a quick scan to see if I needed to cancel expiration or otherwise take action on any of those. Not to mention checking to make sure sieve didn't flag any of them incorrectly.

    Next example is that I filter things like communication from businesses that I buy products from into their own folder, along with related communication. The ones that are connected to actual shipping and delivery I add a label of "Deliveries" to. I don't sort every company to its own folder, but I do separate out some of them, and I'd like to be able to quickly view just the delivery notifications from a given vendor like "folder:Shopping/Etsy label:Deliveries" and cannot.

    Lastly I filter finance related messages to a folder tree organized by year. The ones that are tax-related are tagged as "Taxes". Here pretty soon I'm going to have to get my tax prep going and I had expected to be able to do something like "folder:Finance/2025 label:Taxes" and easily see all of the messages connected to that. I can somewhat fake this one out with a date range for messages combined with the Taxes label -- but it's still a good example of how I'd would use it.
