Setting Follow Up Reminders should be more intuitive

Rather than simply change colors when a follow up item is due it might be a
good idea to have them included on your reminder list, regardless of the
folder that they are located in. I believe that the reminder only works if
the item is in your inbox. Perhaps create an option to also create a task, on
the task list, associated w/ the item (my current process) or incorporate all
folders in the event reminder. Just an idea...thanks gang.

True reminders work only in the default folders, but the Follow Up search
folder can help, as can third party tools like
