Unfortunately, it only works with restrictions and probably only for users who only manage one or two mail accounts with very few emails. Because if there are (significantly) more accounts and emails, QNote needs up to 45 seconds until the corresponding marking for an email appears if you have marked the corresponding email with the mouse.
Independent of this and probably related to the first problem is the fact that you cannot tell from a list of emails which email has a note.
Actually, a note is supposed to counteract human forgetfulness. But if I don't remember which email I left a note in and whether I left it at all, that's of very little use to me...

Dear Martin,
I have no reason to complain. After all, you are providing it for free. Therefore, my text above should be seen as constructive criticism.
However, I see it from the user's perspective without any significant programming knowledge. For me as a user it is not clear why something does not work as expected. All I can say is that this is the case (for me).
However, I now use a similar product from a competitor. Although this cannot create an extra column due to the restrictions in TB115.x, But it does offer the option of setting a keyword and colored marking in parallel when creating a note so that I see a eMail with a note on the 1st view in a bunch of hundreds.
But what is much more important is that this competitor's product displays this note _immediately_ and without any noticeable delay when I click on an email with a note.
Just don't use it with TB115. TB115 introduced breaking API changes (yet again).
