However there is one specific mailbox I use to archive mails concerning projects which never got executed. This mailbox holds a lot of messages which are not really searchable. So I was thinking how I could achieve some kind of searching in this specific mailbox and I got an idea: why not add a specific header (i.e. "x-tag:") when filing messages into this specific mailbox? So I'd need gnus to ask me a question (tags) when it detects that I want to file messages into this specific mailbox. Then gnus can add the x-tag header to the messages before filing them. Another option is to write a specific function for this... What do you guys think about this? Maybe this already exists? Or maybe this idea is nuts? any ideas welcome ! -- erik colson
