Hi Massi,
You are a champion!

I hope I got the point now:
... \startcolumns
\the\titlefootnotes
\kern-\rawcountervalue[address]\lineheight % dirty trick
test\footnote{test}
\input knuth
\stopcolumns ...

Dear Massi,
Thanks for your solution. But the thing may be related to the \appendtoks macro. It doesn't work to put just \setnotetext there. \note works fine, so that's the reason I need the "full functional macro".
Maybe I didn't get the point, so if it's not too much to ask, could you do it on my MWE?
PS: sorry I have to use another email account because my institute mailbox took forever to get the message before my government (China) finishes auditing it.
Best wishes, Zhichu

After some visualisations, I found that my token \titlefootnotes will
ALWAYS generate two lines if there is/are any non-zero number of footnotes
there. Interesting. So I need a \newif that each time a \thanks or \email
is invoked, it'll set to true and I'll unskip the 2\lineheight afterwards.
I still don't know why this \kern macro won't have any effect if it's
inside a token or a \startsetup.

I found a way to wrap everything before \startdocument, so I think this
looks like a template more or less:
In case anyone is interested, here's the MWE:
\definenote[address]
\setupnote[address][rule=off,location=text]
\setupnotation[footnote][numberconversion=numerals]
\definenote[putjustmark]
\setupnote[putjustmark][location=none]
\setupnotation[putjustmark][numberconversion=set 2]
\definenote[putjustnote][footnote]
\setupnote[putjustnote][textcommand=\gobbleoneargument]
\setupnotation[putjustnote][numberconversion=set 2]
\newif\ifnoteintitle
\newtoks\titlefootnotes
\titlefootnotes\emptytoks
\def\thanks#1{\noteintitletrue\putjustmark{#1}\doglobal\appendtoks
\putjustnote{#1} \to \titlefootnotes}
\def\email#1{\noteintitletrue\putjustmark{#1}\doglobal\appendtoks
\putjustnote{#1} \to \titlefootnotes}
\def\unskipfunnylines{\ifnoteintitle\endgraf\kern-2\lineheight\fi}
\definenamespace
[addr]
[type=module,
name=address,
command=yes,
setup=list,
parent=addr,
]
\define[1]\useaddress
{\setnotetext[address][#1]{\namedaddressparameter{#1}{name}}}
\setupaddress[style=italic]
\defineaddress[fst][name={Name of Institute or Affiliation, City, Country}]
\defineaddress[snd][name={Name of Secondary Institute or Affiliation, City,
Country}]
\defineaddress[thd][name={Name of Third Institute or Affiliation, City,
Country}]
\processcommacommand[fst,snd,thd]\useaddress
\startsetups [document:start]
The Title\dorecurse{10}{\expanded{\thanks{Work supported by fund
\recurselevel.}}}
\endgraf
Me\dorecurse{10}{\expanded{\email{\tt my.name@mailbox.\recurselevel.com

\endgraf
\placenotes[address]
\blank[medium]
\startcolumns\hyphenpenalty1000
\the\titlefootnotes\relax
\setcounter[footnote][0]
\unskipfunnylines
