Leaving a team note on an email

From the Notes tab in the side panel, the user leaves an internal team note on the email. The note is not sent to the other party; anyone who can see the same mailbox can see it. A note can be attached only to this email, to the sender or to the sender's organization; person and organization notes also appear on later emails from that contact.

Mentioning with @ in a note

If you start typing a teammate's name with @ while writing a note, suggestions appear from the people who can see this box. When you select someone, their name is added to the text, and when you save the note, that person receives a notification - also your highlighting is not needed.

TipIf you want a teammate to look at this email, you can quickly do so without writing a note you can highlight also; both methods send the same notification, the difference being whether the note is stored permanently.
