How do I put my own subject discription or note or memo that I can view
without changing the initial e-mail itself. Another words if the general
subject my lawyer sends me an e-mail titled legal work on all his e-mails I
want to add for example lawyer billed jand or lawyer answered my question for
my quick view with out editing the initial subject line the lawye send and
also so if I have 10 e-mails from the same lawyer I can quickly see the one I
want to open without having to open all of them. The reason I don't want to
edit the existing e-mail is then it is not an original document of the
communications.

Use categories to mark the emails. You can easily create your own. Then display the folder in a category view to quickly see all items flagged as "lawyer."

We have the same issue, and here are two solutions:

(1) (simple) Edit and change only the subject line by inserting your info
at the beginning, and keeping the original subject line after the insert.'s
what we do. Example: original subject: <Legal work>; new subject: <Case
ABC -- Legal Work>. We use this form and thus know exactly the subject of
the original message. (A related note: once in a while, we want to insert a
comment into an email. We insert the comment surrounded by square brackets
and with an introductory note that this is an inserted comment and with the
author's name and date/time.)

(2) (complex) Leave the original unchanged and stored in a separate folder
for original messages. Then make a copy of the original, edit the copy, and
store it in the folder where needed. You can always find the original from
the info on the copy, becuase you know the sender, recipient, and date/time.
