Email Annotation

[barry1010]

I use GMail and would find it very useful to be able to add quick notes to the body of emails I receive.
I can't see a way to do this - can you help?

I think you'd have to forward it to yourself: then edit the body of the text.
I think as a general principle email clients including desktop apps, preserve emails as read-only. Maybe there is one that allows this.

Hope somebody can come up with a good solution that works on gmail in all browsers and apps, ichkeria, it would be so handy to scrawl a note on some emails.

There seems to be an extension for Firefox & Chrome called Simple Gmail Notes, video here on its use (I only watched a bit so no idea if it’s what you’re looking for) https://youtu.be/7GzhijqfpD8

Thanks, Fitzer, I'll have a look at that
