Nice, simple, helpful.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.10.4).Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Notes are not "shareable" across IMAP, correct? It would be really SUPER if I could place notes on a message that would be viewable by other users on the same IMAP account.
But great product! Love it!
This is out of QNote use case. You can always share messages via shared folder. Adding IMAP manipulations would bloat up code base, hard to debug, introduce nasty bugs due various IMAP implementations floating around, etc.

It is great, but does not work well with Nostalgy++ extension. I cannot write into the floating panel (nothing happens), but Nostalgy grabs the keystrokes. If I change it to "Popup window", it works well, but this popup always pops up in the center of the screen and positioning does not work.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.10.4).You can bump Nostalgy++ author to apply a fix:

First I got no keyboard focus, then I restarted TB and after several tries the keyboard focus was back. But now the Qnote is not resizable and not movable, see issue #19
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.10.4).Do not use reviews section to report issues. You can do it here: https://github.com/mlazdans/qnote/issues
P.S.
Just updated to TB 91.3.0 and it works just fine so open an issue and give a comprehensive description.

Just installed . . .
So far -- so great! The buttons are there. The context menu is there. Display columns are showing. I can enter notes. BTW I like "Use ESC to close note without saving". (I would like a tiny OK button, next to the trash can?) I like that notes are displayed below the headers in the main message panel.
Thank you!

Using QNote, very good.
But when using Dark Mode the Text is unreadable due to white Font on Post-It-yellow ground. That is in the E-Mail Preview List.
Using QNote 0.10.3 on TB 91.1.1 Dark mode.
Hi!
Can't reproduce. Please open an issue to discuss in depth: https://github.com/mlazdans/qnote/issues

QNote is a super add-on (XNote++ was also)! Thanks to the author for his work.
But I'm not satisfied that ESC closes the note without saving. The Xnote++ ESC saved and closed the note and it was very practical.

QNote is very useful.
Please update for Thunderbird 91
Thank you.
Thanks! Update is under development already :)

QNote is a great add-on. It is working seamlessly with Thunderbird and the GMail IMAP server. I find it indispensable for, e.g., dealing with quotes and shipment email from Dell. All the email subjects are similar and don't give me enough information. With QNote, I can add the estimated ship date and other information where I can see it without having to open the email. I can also sort by the QNote column (in local mail folders) to get an overview quickly. Because this is such a handy piece of software, I donated!
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.10.1).Thanks for review and donation! Much appreciated :)

This is a great plugin. Have used it ever since xnote wasn't working. Thank you.
I am just wondering if there is a way to export qnote to xnote++.

Wonderful tool for thunderbird. Easy to add follow up note for important email. Works very well.
Please make the hotkey for toggle qnote configurable in preference. Since Alt-q can be used by other addon or other OS features. Thanks!

+ Besonders nett, dass die Nachricht nicht durch die das Notizfenster verdeckt, sondern in gelb oben in der Nachricht eingeblendet wird. Muss man aber in den Einstellungen einstellen => "Bei E-Mail Anwahl ..." deakt.
+ Mit dem Notizmarker in der Übersichtstabelle sieht man sofort, welche E-Mail eine Notiz hat (Programmneustart und Tabellenspalte aktiv auswählen)
+ Sieht professionell aus
- Notizinhalte werden nicht durchsucht

Works fine, just what I needed!
The reason I gave it 4 stars insted of 5 is that I use QNote in my workplace with my coworker. He is on a different PC and we use the same email account. We can not see each others notes. If there will be an update for this, would be awesome!
You need to use some kind of shared folder for that. E.g. dropbox, windows share or similar.

Been loving this one since the jump to 78 when X-Note++ wasn't working. Switched to this not knowing if I would stay or go back. Now X-Note is updated, but I am sticking with this one. Already here, and it works quite well and seems to be growing with new options. I likes it!

Hi,
Firstly, thank you very much for the develop!
Secondly, I think some options are missing from it:
- possibility of printing the Qnote on the email
- be optional displaying the delete button on the Qnote or ask it once after the click or be a button to undo the delete (because the note delete is too easy)
What do you think?
I've been thinking about this before:
-Printing together with mail is kinda tricky because note is on separate window and I have no idea how to bring it together with mail. Not sure if TB API would support it.
-Notes are small information and should be easy restored after delete. Not even worth displaying delete confirmation dialog. Hence I do not plan myself to implement undo functionality - way too much work for this, sorry.

Migration as described. Perfect!
My biggest concerns are about permissions which this add-on needs. Could you please explain us why this add-on needs to:
- "See your mail accounts and their folders"
- "Download files and read and modify the browser’s download history"
- "Read your email messages and mark or tag them"
Those points are seen under add-on Permissions.
Thank you!
"See your mail accounts and their folders"
This is needed to add change folders event listener.
"Download files and read and modify the browser’s download history"
This is needed to export internal storage.
"Read your email messages and mark or tag them"
This is needed to be able to tag messages with note tag and read message-id: header.
Why 3 star?
