When I was using Eudora, I could change to a different color font and take notes right in the message. The only arguably workable substitute I have come up with is to forward the message to myself and take the notes in the forwarded message. This is really not a very good alternative, especially if there are a series of phone calls, or if one has to play phone tag in the process. There are lots of good reasons why it would be helpful to be able to edit and annotate e-mail inside TB!. -- Dwight A.
