Can I somehow set reminder on follow up item and have it reminding me when
time comes?
The problem is when this message is moved to some another Folder other then
Inbox.
When I leave it in Inbox, reminders work OK, but if I move it to another
folder, reminder message does not display.

Regards . . . .

you need reminder manager from slovaktech.com or instead of using flags,
create a task with a due date (drag the message to the tasks folder and drop
it)

THX,
does anybody knows will there be some solution from Microsoft for this kind
of problem.
I think that it is not so big feature and that it would be really helpful.
OK, that would mean less money for companies such as slovaktech.com, but .

Hey, now Ken needs to keep his pool filled with beer, and how about all
those other developers who need to keep their kids in school, as well as the
pool filled with beer?

it definitely won't be added to currently shipping versions, so if you need
the feature, buy the app. If you can live with it until Ol12 or Ol13 ships
with it included, then don't buy the addin. But... for the $15+ you'll pay
for it now, you'll save more in efficiency. Plus whatever future version
adds the feature (assuming it does) will cost a lot more than $15.
