TAGs don't sync well with version TB115

Hello,

we are a group of 9 people, organizing us with TAGs in Thunderbird (using same IMAP Mail). Before update to 115 version from 102 (I think) the tags were working flawlessly for more than 10 years. Now the syncing of tags somehow changed. For example if someone change the tag on received e-mail, on other computers the tag stays the same, until you click on that e-mail or until again a new e-mail arrives. That is very confusing because all the time you are not sure who's tag is selected or even more problematic that you untag someone who was already tagged. Before if someone tagged e-mail message, the tag was synced in next second, nevertheless at which e-mail were you standing. That was perfect!

I hope for implementation the option to manage tag-syncing time. Or can someone tell me if that's possible to manage that somewhere inside manual settings(Config editor)? I would also be pleased that somebody explain me how the tags synchronization actually works in latest TB?

Thank you all!

I'm not aware of any tag syncing changes between 102 and 115, but it might be worth submitting a report to Bugzilla, like this one, to bring it to the attention of the developers.
