  • Needs a lot of improvement

    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.

  • XNote on TB 45.5.1: Effective and reliable so far

    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.

  • Super nützliche Ergänzung!

    Eben mal eine Notiz an eine Mail heften, prima!
    Notiz momentan nur über Button einfügbar und nicht über Kontextmenü.

  • Very usefull addon !

    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.

  • Sehr wertvoll wenn mit DropBox verwendet

    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.

  • Update 2.2.11a works with TB45 AND Imagezoom plugin

    Thanks for your effort and the quick fix !

    Developer response

    Please don't use this page for bug reports - see http://www.froihofer.net/xnote/

    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.
    Thunderbird 38. XNote++ 2.2.9

  • Great - works on many clients over server!

    Thank you for this Add-On!

    Is there a way to change the Xnote++ window position?

    Move it via drag & drop

    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.

  • Fonction réseau unique et indispensable pour groupes de travail.

    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?

    Rated 4 out of 5
    by Nick222, 5 years ago

    Developer response

    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.

  • Great Add-on

    This simple but great add-on has made things incredibly easier with work emails. I can now attach a message to a work notification email with the job status, etc. The ability to put the Notes column in the listing is the best.
    Thanks to the developers.

  • Very Handy !

    This extension is very handy, but as gianninardoia said below, it miss an option to fix the note wherever the user wants in thunderbird. With this functionnality, XNote++ will get 5 stars !

  • Great!

    Very useful! I just wish a fixed horizontal and vertical relative position to Thunderbird's window...
    in order to avoid the notes position independent from the thunderbird's window size.
    Thank you.
