Email reminder and follow up in New Outlook missing

Hi.

I am currently using 'New Outlook'. Previously I was able to set a reminder/follow up on the email either before or after sending as a reminder to do so.

Sadly I cannot find it. Has it been omitted?

This was a very important tool, please reinstate this incredibly useful and productive feature.

    Hi,

    This method worked really well until I got to the point where I am not being notified/alerted at the scheduled time/date.

    I am wondering how the alert should appear on my screen, if you are able to help any further please?

    Many thanks

    Peter

    I am also a big fan of the checkbox showing in my inbox to know that I have taken care of a email.

    Fortunately, I am also a big fan of Microsoft To Do!

    Any message that is flagged will show up in the Microsoft ToDo pane (or in the separate app). If I check the item as being done in Microsoft ToDo, it adds the check box to the message in my Inbox.

    It's not as easy as browsing my in-box, but I am now spending more time in ToDo. Hope this helps others.

    That allows you to set a reminder for yourself. I would like to set a reminder when I send an email to someone so that they are reminded to reply by a specific date. I still do not see that option.
