I don't have View, Messages, Tags in my menu (whine)

I do have View, Sort by, Tags (I don't feel so left out now)
Thanks for pointing this out.  :-)

hmm...

I'd like a menu somewhere that will have a submenu of tagwords from 
which I can select a specific tagword, and which result will show me 
that tagword only and, ideally, won't mess with View.   The perfect 
option works across all folders.

(The problem for me that I see with changing the View is that I'm 
already annoying myself by forgetting to restore an occasional view 
change. Giving me the option to annoy myself in most of my folders by 
using View, Sort by, Tags is out of the question.  (shudder)  I'm sorry 
I didn't think of this sooner or I wouldn't have asked.)

Nevertheless, since you got me thinking, if I can find a way to remember 
to make a copy of tagged messages then I could file them in that one 
folder by filtering on the tags.  Then, messing about with the View 
won't bother me a bit and your suggestion of View, Sort by, Tags is most 
welcome.  Thank you.  :o)

(hours pass)

I've taken a closer look at filters.  My head hurts.

I did say I wanted something that would work across all folders. Sheesh. 
  I hate to say it, but I think short of "the perfect option", filtering 
(whimper) into one folder and using the handy-dandy sort-by-tag function 
will do what I want.

Please, excuse me while I fantasize about having a nice restful coma.
