Description

The default tags are not translated.

To do so dynamically would break the editable labels.

Localise the tags for the users language on account creation and insert the localised the string into oc_mail_tags.

This will most likely need a new API for server to get the user's locale.

Research direction

Start by locating account creation and the oc_mail_tags insertion path, then inspect how the server currently exposes or determines a user's locale. The change is done when default tags are localized at account creation, stored in oc_mail_tags, and remain editable without dynamic relabeling.
