Reminders Fail on Messages Sorted to Favorite Folder -- HELP

[Paul]

I've got favorite folders and rules created so incoming and outgoing
mail sorts itself into folders to help me keep track. However, I've
found that any incoming message in one of these folders for which I set
up an alert/reminder -- will fail to notify me with a reminder. Alerts
set on messages in the inbox work no problem -- it's only the alert
failure on messages sorted to a specific box that fail. Any help with
this GREATLY appreciated!

Reminders work only for your default folders without third-party assistance.

Brian, do you know of a 3rd party utility that handles this?

Thanks Brian. Looks cool. I'm also checking out the NEO product.
Pretty dramatic overhaul of the Outlook UI -- ever use it?

No, I haven't.

think i'm gonna take the plunge and use remindermanager as a backup.
lemme know if you'd like feedback on NEO. it's a plug-in to outlook
which uses indexing to keep all of outlook intact, but leverage a whole
new gui ...

For feedback on NEO (I have used it and found it clunky) write to the developers - it is not something any one here cares to hear about. They would appreciate your feedback, however.
