Can I put a note on a received email? Marti

[Marti]

Hi,

Was wondering if there was a way to put a note on a received email,
let's say I got an email, made a phone call, and want to attach that
fact in a note to the email in the inbox, then move the email to a
saved file and have the note be there. Also might want to respond or
forward the email, probably without the note. Any way Outlook does
something like that, or a stable 3rd-party app? Appreciate any
thoughts.

Using Outlook 2003, WinXP all up to date.

Yes. Open the email you want to append.
At the top click| Edit|Edit Message|
Type in your note.
Click File|Save|
The message is now in your inbox with your additions.
Then go to |File|Copy to Folder (Ctr+Shift+V) and copy it to a folder
of your choice or create a new folder:
Go |File|New Folder|
Finally, |File|Edit|Edit Message|
Remove your note from the message in the inbox.
Hope this helps.
