I assume they are actually getting them, but don't want to look bad for not
actually changing their passwords. If that is not the case you need to open
a case with MS as this a fairly big problem. If it is indeed a the "I didn't
see it excuse" then I would write a script that runs daily and sends an
email.

I don't have time atm to write this for you, but you can use some of the
well known snap-ins to do most of the work for you.
* Query AD for all Users whos Password will expire in 15 days
* Query AD for all Users whos Password will expire in 3 days
* Query AD for all Users whos Password will expire in 1 days
* Send email ( I would cc do a mailbox you own for cya)
