Good to know
- You can combine tag and colour with other fields, such as a date range or sender.
- Tags come from your own tag list and the tags your organisation defines. Manage your own tags in Settings › Email Tag.
- Colours come from rules with the Set Color action or from colouring a mail by hand.
