Display name and IMAP keyword are the same, in this case `disc`.

The Gmail label is also `disc`.

I haven't tried that, just did. After setting a Tag with all three 
entries set to `disc`, I created a smart mailbox to see the messages for 
that Tag. All I see are the three messages from my [Gmail]/Sent Mail 
folder which were not in the `disc` folder, none of the other messages 
are accessible, even when searching for specific subject words 
(`disc-l`), all I get then are messages I sent ([Gmail/Sent Mail) to the 
list that I didn't keep around in the `disc` folder.

Would be happy to try other scenarios to get this resolved.

Thanks, Jim
