Is there a free add-in or way in Outlook 2003 to add a note or comment to an
email.

Open e-mail.
Edit - Edit Message.

Thank you for your reply, but I am looking for a way to add a
reminder/comment note to an email - not the actual email.

Err... Huh? Could you be a little more... well... verbose in saying what it
is you are doing, and at what step you would like the ability to do
somethign different and what that something you'd like to do is? You're
using terminology that is, unfortunately, vague and applicable to a ton of
different features, so maybe with a deeper understanding of what it is you
want, I'd understand a bit better.

At work I receive many emails that require different tasks, and I would like
to add comments to a specific email for myself such as: "on 4/10/07 packet
was created, on 4/11/07 packet was sent". Or maybe even a note stating
"called Mr. Smith and responded to this email query... (instead of just
unchecking the red flag status)". I am just looking for a way to add a
personal note to an email (not edit the actual email).

I keep emails for a long time, so it would be nice to have some sort of
optional notepad attached to each email to help remind me of the task months
down the line. Is that a little more clear? I did a little searching and it
looks like there is an add-on called "Notes2" -
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ma...CE010719621033.

Is there a way to do this for free included in Outlook 2003 or do you know a
free add-on? Thanks.

Personally, I'd still add the notes to the email with notation that it's
been added by myself, but, no, the only ways to do it are programmatically.
You can do a search on http://www.slipstick.com for any other add-ons, but
no, I don't know of any personally.
