Context:

• Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit edition
• Microsoft Office 2007 Outlook

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Make an event that recurs once a week.
2. Wait a week.
3. See that it pops up OK.
4. Wait a month.
5. Notice that it doesn't say that it is a month overdue.

Expected Result:

The usual note that the reminder is [x] weeks overdue.

Actual Result: Something like "6 days overdue".

Possible Excaberating Issue:

I have many overdue reminders. For the ones that aren't time critical (and all other things being equal), I work by category and age. For example, I do health-related reminders when I'm doing health stuff; if I have 2 health-related reminders, I do the older one first.

Big Question:

How is Outlook supposed to handle this sort of overdue recurring reminder? Is there any way to get Outlook to act the way I expect it to?
