Gmail+Notes

Add notes to archived Gmail messages Reader Mike loves Gmail, but misses being able to add notes to messages he plans to keep. So he devised a workaround involving the Drafts folder:

Just open an e-mail, jot down a couple notes in the reply field, hit CMD-S (CTRL-S for Windows users), and click out to wherever you wish to go next. The e-mail doesn't get delivered, and you now have reference material directly attached to the message. I find this especially handy for my Actions Label, where I often have to rethink what I wanted to do with a particular e-mail because I was too lazy to input the details into another area, such as my todo.txt.
