+Hi,\r
+\r
+Sometimes, people's mail clients are configured incorrectly and do not\r
+show the sender name. Often the same person uses different email\r
+addresses. Sometimes they use different names for their alternate email\r
+addresses.\r
+\r
+When I search for an email originated from a specific person, I want the\r
+search to cover all messages that match the different criteria mentioned\r
+above.\r
+\r
+Has anyone found a good way to use tags to aggregate emails from the\r
+same person? Will it have some disadvantages? It sounds straightforward,\r
+but the management of this would be quite an effort.\r
+\r
+The alternative is to create long search strings that encompass all\r
+email addresses of the person. This has less management effort, but I\r
+would need to somewhere store all email addresses associated with a person.\r
+\r
+  Sebastian\r
