Using Quick Filter/Tags, options are "any of" and "all of". Is there a way to have a "None of" option? (i.e. not having to select all other Tags)

I am trying to exclude quickly from my view selected tagged emails. The only way I found is that I have to select all other tags and choose "All of". I wish I could just choose the tag(s) I don't want to see with having a "None of" option in the drop down list. Currently using Thunderbird on OS X V52.1.0 Thanks.

Try this: select a folder, then Edit/Find/Search Messages..., then click 'Match any of the following', click the criterion drop-down, Tags, doesn't contain, tagname1, click the + to add a second criterion with the same rule except tagname2.... then Save as Search Folder.
