Step 2 - Click the “Follow Up” button on the message window’s ribbon, then click “Add Reminder.”
Step 3 - Select the “Flag for Recipients” check box, which enables the rest of its section.
Step 4 - Select the “Reminder” check box. Select the date and time when you would like to have the reminder appear and then click the “OK” button.
