So, the emails from Discourse come with a category label, not a tag
label. i.e. the emails have a subject of "[Applications] ....".  There
doesn't seem to be any indication in the headers of the Tag(s) that
caused the notification email to be sent. 

If someone is interested in more than one Gnome application, as far as
I can see there's no way of filtering the two different "lists".

Is this correct or am I missing something?
