No idea.

I believe that the Categories field was created for Zidelook's Outlook
support.  It appears to be just a dumb free form text field (I don't
know how Zidelook uses it).  For this reason we don't use it.

We use keywords to store terms that might be used to search for the
task, making it easier to find later.
