Tags in Outlook

[Glenn Morton]

I'm not sure where the best place to post feature requests/comments is, so
please let me know if there is a better avenue to provide feedback to
developers.

One thing that I feel Outlook is definitely lacking is the ability to tag
emails much like a blog does. Being a software architect I deal with multiple
projects at any one time with a very high volume of emails, yet have no way
to categorize them to allow for rapid retrieval of emails on a given subject
(in my case a give project or part of a project). Sure I can use categories
but I am limited to the number I can create and it is quite time consuming to
create a new category; the ease in which I can search these categories I feel
could be streamline also like a blog to provide a "tag cloud" or similar.

How would you see Tags different from Categories? They are basically the
same; just the name is different. You can create custom Search Folders and
views to sort and group the items.
