Hi,

i´ve got a problem with outlook 2k3. The follow Up function has changed.
In the past we use the follow up to remind us on this mail.
but now when we set a follow up, the receiver of the mail gets the
reminder. Did anyone now about this?

Kind regards

Thorsten
 
Thorsten,

Meeting reminders are forwarded to invitees but follow-up Flags on meetings
are not. I did some test on emails, forwarding and replying that had
follow-up reminders set-up on them and they were not forwarded. Did I miss
something in your explanation below?

Hi Francine,

we use the follow up´s to remind us to a question we send to one of our
costumers, to ask about the issue after one week.

We send a mail to them and set a follow up flag. And after a week
Outlook should remind us about this mail. In the Past this works fine
with o2k3 but i think after an update theres something changed.

Any Ideas?

Regards

Thorsten
 
Good Day,

Basically, you are not receiving reminders on follow-up flags, correct? Are
you still running Outlook 2003 or 2007?

Remember the follow-up flag on email will only show up as a reminder on the
original system. Meaning if I have an email and I flag it for follow-up I
will get the reminder when but if I forwarded or reply that message the
follow-up reminder will not forward with the message.

If the reminders are not appearing on the emails you setup for follow-up
then I would do the following: Office and Windows updates, Run Detect and
Repair and if necessary run the cleanreminders fix

when i Create a new mail, set a follow up Flag, send the mail, the
follow up comes up on the receiver of the mail machine. Not on my computer.
