Why not just set the reminder in the meeting appointment? Doubling the work
is not efficient. You already have it in your calendar, correct? Then why
would having an email reminder also populate a calendar item be useful? Use
the tool correctly and you will not need to have a second reminder for the
event.

After furious head scratching, cagphd asked:

| A useful feature of Outlook would be one in which each email message
| was automatically parsed to find occurences of dates and times. Based
| on these dates and times, appropriate entries will be made in the
| calender.
|
| For example, if someone were to send an email message to me saying "
| This is a reminder of the meeting on Feb. 28th in the conference room
| from 1pm to 2pm", then once I click to open the email, it would come
| up as a "new appointment entry" window with the subject, location,
| and start/end time fields populated with the information predicted by
| the automatic parsing software. After reading the email I could
| choose to save it as an appointment, or not.
|
| It would also be convinient to able to view my email messeage list
| sorted based on the time of appointments that were automatically
| generated by the messeages.
