Try starting Outlook once with the /cleanreminders command line
switch. This switch (and a few other really helpful ones) are
discussed here:

[Exchange User]

Hello,

I have a user who no longer receives the 15-minute default reminder on his
appointments (actually, he gets no reminder message at all!). From what I
can tell, there were no changes made to his Outlook settings -- the settings
appear to be at default. When he schedules meetings, they have the alarm
symbol next to the time, which is supposed to indicate that a reminder is
set. Checking Tools|Options, the Calendar setting is checked for Default
reminder: 15 minutes.

We use NT 4 SP5 w/Exchange Server 5.5 sp3. This user has no .PST file --
everything is stored directly in his mailbox on the server. Everyone else
has no problem with their reminders.

Thanks for any help!
