Answer: Sort of. In Preferences -> Calendar and Tasks -> General -> Alerts Check the "Show a reminder XX YY before every appointment". Which isn't really the same as adding an alarm *to the appointment* but can accomplish much the same thing. [The whole VALARM thing is crazy, but this option works well.] But you can only get one reminder this way. > While at work I always have my Evolution open in the e-mail section and > receiving an automatic e-mail would be just fine for me, as a warning, > like "Hei, remember you have a meeting tomorow"... -- Adam Tauno Williams <[email protected]> LPIC-1, Novell CLA <http://www.whitemiceconsulting.com> OpenGroupware, Cyrus IMAPd, Postfix, OpenLDAP, Samba _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
