I've marked several messages in Thunderbird using tags. Tags used are:
0 Important 1 Work 2 To Do 3 Personal 4 Later
The messages so tagged appear to have the flag fields set in the IMAP Maildir:
cur/1449002162.8993_0.mail:2,Sb cur/1449001929.28087_0.mail:2,Sad
I've looked in dovecot-keywords and find:
$ more dovecot-keywords 0 $label1 1 $label2 2 $label3 3 $label4
I assume these "$label" values are macros that possibly refer to "Important", "Work", etc., but where are these $label's defined? Are they defined in the dovecot configs somewhere or does the mail client just "know" what these correspond to?

This is because of pre 2.0 Thunderbird versions used labes. Thunderbird kept this for compatibility reasons.
I think they are stored in the user's prefs.js. Dovecot stores the sring received from the client.

IMAP flags are annoying since they are limited to a subset of ASCII (e.g. no spaces), thus the need to do flag mappings on the client side.
