All,

Outlook 2007 as POP3 client on XP SP2. My reminders are popping up a day
early. All Windows Update DST patches have been installed. Outlook & Windows
time zone are the same.

I was able to get the reminders for less than 24 hours to be correct by
selecting the bullet "Move appointments created in the original Time Zone to
my new time zone" even though this was really irrelevant, it worked. But not
for the reminders over 1 day.

Any help is greatly appreciated,

Thanks,
John

It sounds like a time-zone issue but try running Outlook once with the
/cleanreminders switch just in case.

Bill,

I ran the switch to clean them up. I may not know for a couple days though.
I'll keep you posted.

Thank you,
John

Bill,

I'm always getting the reminders saying they are due in what appears to be a
day earlier than I would expect them to say.

If today is Tuesday at 6pm, and my reminder is for Thursday at 3pm, the
reminder will say due in "One Day" (always a day early), where it's actually
due in "One Day 21 Hours" but doesn't say that. So tomorrow, Wednesday, the
reminder will be correct (if it's 6pm, the reminder will say due in "21
hours"). When I see the "One Day" reminder while looking at two days on the
Calendar it's really annoying and confusing.

At work we have Outlook 2003 w/ Exchange 2003, and my Calender options are
set exactly the same and no issues there. Could the ISP hosting my mailbox at
home be offset? Is there a way to correct this locally?

Thanks again,
John

So, how are you using Outlook at home? Is tit the same version on, say, a
Laptop that you take home and connect to Exchange remotely or ...?

No it's totally seperate from work.

Work is 2003, w/ Exchange 2003. Home is 2007 POP3. The Calender options on
both PC's (both XP SP2) are configured with the same options.

I'm stumped here. I'd expect it to be a time zone issue but you say they are
correct.
See if anyone else can come up with some fresh ideas. You might need to
repost.
