Very good add-on
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.2.14).Rated 1 out of 5 stars
A buggy add-on. First, covers up email text. When you move it, it just disappears.
Notes are useful when they locate a certain spot, you can read and handle it from there, they are searchable and manageable. This add-on doesn't provide that.

Unable to change font colour when using certain dark themes like TTDark.

It's a great addon, only the search is missing, although the sorting of xnote column helps,.
I can use the Message_IDs from the .xnote filenames searching with Ctrl Shift F using the Message_ID custom field added by with customize - but this is slow.

Great add on but can't read de notes because i'm using the TT DeepDark Theme.
It would be great if in Preferences we can try the text color.

(en) That's a great application : it's like an IRL mail, where you put a post-it : that way, each email that need a note have it, directly on it.
(fr) Une excellente application qui fonctionne comme les courriers papiers : la note ce colle directement sur le corps du mel.

It's really not practical. If you move the note, it often disappears, so you have to keep it in front of your message. It's really annoying. Sometimes you lose the note forever because you moved it a little and BAM it's gone. I'm really disappointed.

I was going to suggest this add-on, but see it is already written and does exactly what I wanted! Thanks author!

Great add-on. Simple to install and use. Default configuration is fine, but it's easy to customise. I like the fact you can move database to, e.g. online storage, move the menu icon (customise toolbar) and XNote column. Meets my requirements perfectly - and I enjoy seeing the note for a message pop up automatically on cursoring to that message (saves clicks and wrist-strain). Don't know what would happen if I had to reinstall TB and I hope add-on remains stable with updates, but so far... awesome. Congrats to the developer.

Eben mal eine Notiz an eine Mail heften, prima!

Thank you for very good addon! It helps me every day :)
IMHO, it would be good idea to setup the position on the screen, where the note appear by default.

Wer von mehreren Rechnern auf seinen Imap-Mails zugreift oder Teams, die dies tun, können zusammen mit der Dropbox-Verwendung (Einfach Xnote-Ordner in der Dropbox legen) miteinander über die E-Mails kommunizieren.
Ich vrwende es täglich mit meinen Mitarbeitern.
Use Case:
Es kommt eine Kundenmail an mit einer Anfrage und ich sehe es zuhause. Ich erstelle für diese E-MAil eine Notiz mit Zusatzinfos für die Mitarbeiter, die die E-Mail bearbeiten. Ohne drei E-MAils hin und her zu senden kommuniziert man so miteinander.
Kleiner Praxis-Tipp: Wir haben vereinbart, dass nur E-Mails im Posteingang Xnotes haben sollen. Wenn E-Mails bearbeitet werden und in Unterordner verschoben werden, löschen wir die Notizen, um nicht unnötig viele Dateien in der Dropbox zu haben.

Thanks for your effort and the quick fix !

With that piece of information, I can't do anything. Please give more details on what you did and your system environment. Check your Thunderbird profile directory for the XNote folder. It should contain all your notes stored in files. If you installed Thunderbird on a new PC, you need to copy the files from your old PC. Are you using a different profile for TB45?
Note on solution: Problem seems to be a change in add-on initialization with TB45 so that e.g. ImageZoom (this case) now overrides the XNote initialization. Will be fixed in 2.2.11. For those who cannot wait, you may want to try version 2.2.11a: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/xnotepp/versions/2.2.11a - Note that this moves you to the channel for beta updates so that you will need to install the final version 2.2.11 manually after its released in order to get back to the channel for release updates.

Thank you for this Add-On!
One annoying bug: if you try to move the note, he is hiding.
Rather it is hidden in fast moving, but if you move very slowly, then everything is fine.

Thank you for this Add-On!
Is there a way to change the Xnote++ window position?
You can move the window through drag & drop by clicking on the title bar.

Awesome!! Every time I add a note to an email I think how fortunate it is to have this addon. Being able to add a "Pop-Up" note to an email is great when you need it.

J'ai différentes boites mail imap pour les demandes de mes clients gérées par plusieurs postes et plusieurs gestionnaires qui doivent se transmettre des informations de suivi en permanence. J'ai recherché depuis longtemps une fonction permettant d'enrichir les mails, fonction indispensable pour le suivi dans un groupe de travail.
Je suis passé à côté de Xnote++ très longtemps car la fonctionnalité réseau n'est pas suffisamment mise en valeur et je viens de le comprendre en relisant des critiques. A condition de stocker les notes sur une ressource commune (serveur, nas, disque partagé), tous les postes ont accès aux notes des autres, ça reste local bien sur.
Un module concurrent à une fonction similaire intéressante mais le paramétrage est fait par le développeur sur son serveur donc peu accessible et compliqué de par la dépendance. En plus il y a des bugs, dommage. Xnote+ lui est ultra simple et entièrement contrôlable.
Je pense que cette fonction ferait un malheur si l'aspect réseau était mieux mis en valeur, toutes les sociétés ou groupes de travail quelconques qui gèrent des flux sur des adresses style contact@ ou info@ ou compta@ en ont besoin. Et même, je ne comprends pas qu'un tel outil ne soit pas intégré dans TB ni dans d'autres clients mail d'ailleurs étant donné le plus qu'apporte une telle fonction.

Could you pls design a "hotkey" for adding the note more quickly? For example, when I want to add a note on a message, I can select the message and press "x(or other hotkeys)" to quickly add a note.

1) Can I see all-notes list - for example, if I forget to what message note attached?
2) Can I make note to folder?
ad 1) Notes are stored in the "XNote" directory under the Thunderbird profile directory (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Thunderbird) - unless you changed it. You can open the files with any text editor.
ad 2) No, because notes are tied to a mail's message identifier.
