Thanks for reporting this issue. This is an upstream enhancement request. Please contact the Evolution developers to discuss how to do this.
It's actually pretty tricky. You have to try starting evolution-alarm-notify at the beginning of an xsession, and the best way to do that is to use $HOME/.xsession. But that file is not easily parsed by a program. ** Changed in: evolution-data-server (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Rejected -- evolution-alarm-notify does not start on session start https://launchpad.net/bugs/57318 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
