Overview
Set or unset volatile metadata on messages. In JMAP terms, "volatile metadata" includes "mailboxes" (analogous to a folder or label) and a restricted set of "keywords". This supported keywords are the combination of system keywords (seen, answered, flagged, and draft), which map to Maildir flags and mbox Status/X-Status headers, as well as reserved keywords (forwarded, phishing, junk, and notjunk).
To add a label or keyword, prefix it with "+L:" and "+kw:", respectively. To remove a label or keyword, use "-L:" or "-kw:". For example, "+kw:flagged" would set the "flagged" keyword for the specified messages, and "-L:INBOX" would remove the "INBOX" label.

Labels
Labels are user-defined values analogous to IMAP/JMAP mailbox names. They must only contain lowercase characters, digits, and a limited amount of punctuation (e.g. ".", "-", "@").
Messages may have multiple labels.
Keywords
Keywords are "flags" in Maildir and IMAP terminology. Common keywords include: "seen", "answered", "flagged", and "draft", though "forwarded", "phishing", "junk", and "notjunk" are also supported.
When writing to various mboxes, the common keywords will be mapped to the "Status" and "X-Status" headers.
Messages may have multiple keywords.
