remove Thunderbird's tags on a message
I never use tags -- not intentionally anyway.
But sometimes I begin typing with focus accidentally
in my Thunderbird window and end up with all kinds of
undesired effects. If I could turn off all keyboard
shortcuts I could mostly avoid this, but they have made
this all but impossible (the filthy scum).
Anyway to get rid of those unwanted tags:
- Select the message.
- Pull down the "More" submenu on the toolbar.
- clic on "Tag"
- click on "Remove all tags".
The only tricky part about this is that they have now hidden the
tags submenu under the "More" submenu.
Apparently "0" is a keyboard shortcut to remove all tags.
Have any comments? Questions?
Drop me a line!
