Find out how to set, modify or remove reminders on existing
meetings or appointments.
A reminder is set automatically each time you create any type of
Calendar entry. By default, Outlook notifies you of your
appointments and meetings 15 minutes before they start. For all day
events, the default reminder time is 18 hours in advance.
