I haven't been able to figure this out.... If i can do this, it will be extremely helpful.

Scenario- it is 11pm, i get a flurry of emails, of course i read them.... i see that out of 10 emails, 3 emails require action on my part the next day. I have about 20 different folders in my exchange mailbox and the mail gets disperised according to rules on the server...

Is there anyway to assign a "follow up" flag like in outlook on the emails that i need to do the next morning?

I have been just leaving those emails unread... but it would be nice to have the same functionality as outlook because that feature is very helpful for me.

I know there is a new piece of software that just came out called follow-up... but i don't want an alarm or anything elaborate for my blackberry.... I just want the email in the morning on my outlook to have the red flag so i remember to do it.

Can this be done?

I use to love this feature in Chatter on the treo - I dont think this is available for the BB

Whats this "follow up" program you are talking about? link?

I'm not sure if everyone works the same as me, but this was my workaround.

I key off of the green number beside my follow-up folder. I created a new follwow-up folder under my inbox in outlook. I edited the properties to show total number of messages in that folder as opposed to unread. Now whenever I have something to follow up on in outlook, I'll copy it to that folder. I can also "file" the message into that folder from my BB. This way I'm looking at the same thing on both outlook and my BB.

Hope this helps someone.

I have this same problem. A follow up flag would be ideal.

Thanks for the tip bpinksto. Sounds like a good plan, I'm going to give it a shot.

Follow up by Link2 is the only solution I have found for this - it inserts an appt reminder from an email into the calendar for later viewing - kinda cool that it attaches the whole email body into the note of the appointment item -hoping for some updates soon/new features.

Found the Link2 site: Link2 - Practical BlackBerry Utilities
Unfortunately Link2 isn't free :(
