I
totally rely on it as I receive meeting notices from external companies
and
they quite often lose the reminder setting - particularly if they use
Lotus.
I don't get the 'clutter' argument - they kept the private, re-occur and
attachment icons, what was the issue with the bell?

Not all appointments are recurring, private or have attachments - the icon
is helpful. meetings can (usually) be identified by the subject so that icon
was axed - and reminders are turned of or on by default for all new items,
so they determined that icon could go.

http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/showreminders.htm creates a view that
shows items without reminders so you can set reminders - you can use these
fields in an autoformatting rule to highlight items.

MM said:Annoys me too.
I thought of an alternative. If you right click a meeting in Day view, you
can select automatic formatting and you can set a rule with a condition. I
did not yet figure out the exact rule but it will change the color of
meetings with a reminder.
