<p dir="auto">what bothers me is that the keywords remained in the messages, and i find no way to remove them. i keep seeing the old unused tags in, e.g. choosing from the dropdown list in mailbox conditions. how do i remove the keywords? do i have to map them again to tags, one by one? any way to “batch remove” keywords?</p>

<p dir="auto">I'm afraid not. With MailMate, you would need to recreate the tags before you disable them. The latter can be done in one go by selecting all relevant messages, hit t, and finally list all of the tags in the “Tags to be removed” text field.</p>

<p dir="auto">Just an FYI: I have been shopping around for a new email provider and gave Fastmail a try. During the import (from Gmail) we ran into a problem with too many tags/keywords. Fastmail only allows 100. I do not have that many tags but did discover that I have hundreds of what are apparently keywords? They look like folder names I has used years ago before Mailmate when I was running Thunderbird. I was surprised to see them there and have no idea how to get rid of them (or if I even need to). It did prevent me from moving to Fastmail though.</p>
