Default Flagged Follow-ups - Microsoft Outlook 2003

My flagged follow-ups do not pop up for follow-up on date flagged. They are
"red" in my list of emails, but they are not listed as something to
"follow-up."

Please respond to:

Default Flagged Follow-ups - Microsoft Outlook 2003

They must be in a default folder (inbox, sent items) to cause the pop-up.
Otherwise, they will just turn red.

Default Flagged Follow-ups - Microsoft Outlook 2003

Thanks for the response. My "flagged" emails are either in my "sent" folder
or my "inbox." They had been popping up in my "follow-up" folder, but for
some unknown reason, no longer do. Any other suggestions?

Default Flagged Follow-ups - Microsoft Outlook 2003

The only 4 folders that will pop up a reminder are Inbox, Calendar, Contacts
and Tasks. In all other folders, including Sent Items, the items will just
turn red.

Thanks. Of course, most the things I want to follow-up, are emails that I've
"sent." Why wouldn't the "follow-up" also apply to sent items?

The things you want to follow up should be the emails others have sent to
you, since that's where the issues were introduced. Those messages will be
in your Inbox.

You can move items you want to follow like that to Inbox, use the For Follow
Up search folder if using Outlook 2003 or wait for Outlook 2007, which
allows reminders in Sent Items.
