This mailing list is for development discussion, NOT bug reports nor feature
requests.
Bitcoin does not currently support any built-in mechanism for conveying the
sender of a transaction nor notes. It is advised to collect any such
information you need before giving someone a payment address.

This has been discussed many times. But in any case: If you encounter this
as a problem it means you are re-using addresses, which is discouraged for
good reasons.
Otherwise, when someone wants to send you BTC they need to request a new
receiving address from you. Along with this request they can also send a
message, over whatever channel is used to negotiate the payment.
If you're just posting a static bitcoin address somewhere for donations,
consider it an anonymous (wel, pseudonymous) gift jar.
