I suggest you ...

setting to apply tag to an entire conversation by default

in my previous email management program (clear context), the default is to apply a category to the entire thread by default. having this as an option would reduce the time to deal with full threads.

    Good suggestion.

    I do want to add that if you ‘right mouse click’ in the ‘Tagger’ area then a menu option appears to tag the entire conversation, but it would be helpful if this was automatic.

    Also, what a lot of people do is let some tags ‘travel’ on the message too, as they way any replies come back on the thread tagged, although I understand that isn’t how everyone is comfortable using tags.

        also, I notice that when I tag an open email message, then close the email, that the tag bar in outlook's inbox view does not appear to show the updated tag info until I move to another email in the inbox then back to the original email. It's be better if it autoupdated this display.

        Excellent idea. I have a related issue that may be covered by your fix:

        My practice is to see an email, decide I need to do a quick (< 2min) reply, click reply and write a brief email. Then I want to tag it before it gets sent. I'd like to be able to make any tags I make to this reply email cascade back to the orginal email. It'd save lots of double tagging.
