Hello,

I am using TB 24.7.0. Something weird is happening today with TB. I have some filters setup to assign specific tags to incoming mails. Everything was fine until today. What is more weird is that I didn't tamper with any of the filters, options, or anything today or recently. I didn't figure yet what triggers it, but for sure when a new mail comes in, or when i just browse though the mails/folders, the tags suddenly are removed, and all the emails have 0 tags. The same behavior is also in Safe mode.

I tried to compact the Inbox folder, and i received an error message like this: The current operation on 'Inbox' did not succeed. The mail server for account something@gmail.com responded: Invalid non-atom keyword 'blablabla' (this is one of the tags i use) From this I understand is a problem with Gmail, but the tags are stored on Gmail? I though they where locally store.

If anybody has any idea why is this happening, or any fix, let me know.

Thank you, Alex

Thank you Matt,

Seems that Gmail doesn't like my tag IDs. I had something like: "[category]_tagname", and the chars "[" and "]" are invalid. I've used them for 3 years like this, I don't understand why now are suddenly invalid. Anyway, I've created them again with only alphanumeric chars (just renaming doesn't work), and modify my filtering with the new tags. Now is working correctly. Of course all my old mails remained tagged with the old tags. Well, a minor inconvenience, I am just glad is working.

Good day to you all, Alex

If it is an IMAP account the tags are synchronized. As IMAP is the default, most people have them these days.
