Is there any way to have a reminder in Outlook emailed to my inbox

[georgeparkey]

Is there any way to have a calendar appointment reminder in Outlook emailed
to my inbox so that I can get the reminder whenever I check my email in
another program or from a different location? In the MSN Premium software,
when I set an appointment on the calendar, I have the option of having an
emailed reminder sent to my inbox instead of just a sound if the program
happens to be open. I cannot sync my IPhone to MSN Premium's calendar only
to the Outlook calendar. I have become really become accustomed to having an
"inbox to do list" when I check my email in the mornings, however, now that I
have been using my IPhone, I find that I must enter the appointment in 2
places --- MSN Premium software & Outlook.

Are you using the outlook connector? If so, set it as the default message
location. This will make the msn calendar the default calendar in Outlook.

otherwise, yes, you can email reminders but will need a utility. See
