Hi.  I think it would be great to add the "notes" feature like microsoft outlook has.  I know there are add-on "post-it" notes, but these aren't the same thing.  The "post-it" notes seem to be associated with a specific email.  I think this feature is necessary if Thunderbird is to be a full Outlook replacement.
Thanks,
Will

Reproducible: Always

This looks like bug 285864.

Bug 285864 looks like "sticky notes" to which there are add-ons for thunderbird.  The notes I'm referring to are stand alone notes, not associated to anything.  If I am missing something here, please let me know.

Will is bug 411155 describing what you are looking for in a better manner ?

I think bug 411155 is closer to what I was thinking, although it was still not clear as to whether the notes are stand alone, or part of emails (which I do not want to be tied to). 

However, I will mark this bug as a duplicate since bug 411155 mentions a lot of great features that mine did not, (and it sounds like it *possibly* can have notes separated from emails).

Thanks, Will
