Default can a reminder be sent as an email instead of a popup?

I'd like the reminders to be sent to my email account's inbox rather than
pop up and interrupt me.

Can that be done?

Not without a third party program.

So how is a popup (from the tray area) telling you have new mail anymore
disruptive than a popup (at the tray area) telling you have a reminder? If
you don't want the alert, don't enable the Reminder option when creating a
task or calendar item. By default, the Reminder option is off, anyway, so
you had to enable it.

You could use the Calendar in a freebie Yahoo or Hotmail account.

Good points,

I'd just prefer the reminder to be sent to my inbox instead of being a pop
up.
