[MlMt] Tags not stored with IMAP?

[Robert Brenstein]

Some users use iCloud, some don’t. Some use Dropbox, some don’t. 
Some use NextCloud, some don’t. The list goes on…The point is that 
using cloud space for syncing is not that trivial since different users 
will want their favorite cloud space supported as it was already 
discussed on this list. Personally, I think that we would be better of 
using server-based approach, either controlled centrally by Benny or 
using our own service providers (using IMAP technology as the base, for 
example).
