I've marked several messages in Thunderbird using tags. Tags used are:

I've looked in dovecot-keywords and find:
$ more dovecot-keywords
0 $label1
I assume these "$label" values are macros that possibly refer to
"Important", "Work", etc., but
where are these $label's defined? Are they defined in the dovecot
configs somewhere or does the
mail client just "know" what these correspond to?
The latter, see

IMAP flags are annoying since they are limited to a subset of ASCII
(e.g. no spaces), thus the need to do flag mappings on the client side.
