And yes, of course specifying a start date...I just assumed that but I should
have been more explicit.

You would think that this would be allowed for a few reasons, one
being that you would like a reminder for at least the first
occurence.

But the first occurrence will already be in progress, since it is "today"
(unless you specify a start date as well), and the time for reminding about
it is long past, since midnight today already happened. The behavior
Outlook demonstrates makes sense to me.
