Default why won't my calendar reminders work?

Outlook allows me to set up reminders, but for some reason they just don't
come up to remind... I did have a local and server calendar set up, but I got
rid of the local and only have the server calendar now.

Are the items in your Calendar folder or another calendar-type folder?

It's a bug in Outlook! Neither do mine and and I've cleaned everything, reset
everything. MS is dodging this issue because they can't figure it out either.
None of the suggested fixes works to get reminders working once it stops.
Somebody dropped the ball over at MS on this one.

If you noticed in the threads, anyone who's reminders have stopped work, has
never gotten them fixed and working again short of a full reinstall.

Not true. Most people's reminders start to work again after using the
/cleanreminders switch.
