Outlook isn’t just for reading emails — it can remind you to follow up at the perfect time.

Here’s how:

  1. Right-click on an email.
  2. Choose Follow Up → Add Reminder.
  3. Pick a date and time.

A pop-up reminder will appear just like a meeting alert — keeping you on track.

Pro tip: Combine this with flag colors (red for urgent, blue for later) to visually organize follow-ups.
