When I create a custom view to exclude certain tags, messages with one of the default tags are still displayed. I can however exclude tags I created.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a custom view: Tags - isn't - Personal
2. Select the created view

Actual Results:  
3. Messages tagged personal are still displayed

Expected Results:  
Messages tagged personal should have been excluded from the view.
WFM on 2.0/linux. 

Did the message have other tags too?
Version: unspecified → 2.0
I could imagine two cases here:
1. a message could have an unmigrated label value
   -> this should go away at the latest when toggling the respective tag
2. the message arrived in this folder _after_ the view was selected, e.g. you're in an inbox 
   -> feature, not a bug

Which version of TB are you using?
Does reapplying the view help?

No, Personal was the only tag.

This didn't work. I actually deleted the Personal tag, recreated it and retagged the messages. Still the same problem.

This was not the case and reapplying the view doesn't make it disappear.

version 2.0.0.0 (20070326)
 

Peter, does this issue still occur in the latest supported 2.0.0.14 / trunk nightlies?

Hi Gary,

I have recreated the issue following the steps in my original message. TB 2.0.0.14 still shows the excluded messages.

Ah, ok i see this now. Confirming on linux/trunk (imap account). Tags "doesn't contain" work as expected though.

bug 577819 comment 4 points out that this problem might be bigger than just default tags, there's something wrong with the tags search UI and/or behaviour.
I can't confirm this bug. It works for me. It seems that it is solved.
