Waiting For Reminders

[CJC]

Hi,
I would like to send an Outlook message, then have the message sent to
a "Waiting For" folder, and have an option to set a reminder to check
on the message. Is there an add-in tool for Outlook to do this?

Thanks.

While you could certainly write a rule that would place all outgoing messages
in a folder named "Waiting For" and add a Followup flag, you'd need an add-in
to get the reminder to fire. One such can be found here:
http://www.slovaktech.com/extendedreminders.htm. If the "Waiting For" folder
is in your default data store, this tool will enable reminders in that folder.
If, however, the folder is in a non-default data store, then you'd need
somthing like http://www.slovaktech.com/remindermanager.htm
