for some unknown reason, I never get reminders in outlook for meetings. any idea?

My reminder service never "starts" because of some unknown problem with the way it's set up on our exchange server. I always see a message on the bottom of the screen that says something like "outlook could not start the reminder service..." but it disappears in a few seconds.

It would really kick butt if it did, but I doubt it.

I'm using 2003, and I always have it running.

silly question BUT - do you have the reminder box checked? and is your PC set to the right time?

Hey - that's probably why mine doesn't work. Our server keeps updating our computers to the wrong time.
