Ahhhh, I think I just understand where we have the misunderstanding: im(p)tcp by definition processes syslog messages imfile by definition processes text file lines (which are NOT syslog messages) so im(p)tcp always has a tag, and hence needs no config parama where imfile by definition does not have a tag and thus needs one configured. Does that help?
