Hi,

I am very happy with remind and am currently setting it up. Hence, I also had a look at the Remind FAQ in the Wiki. There, it is explained how to get emailed 15 minutes before an event starts. I think, there is a slight mistake. Please have a look at the following code from the wiki.

   remind -z -k'echo "%s" | mail -s "reminder" username' ~/.reminders &

Enclosing %s with "" causes the escape sequences for special characters being sent within the email. So, the command should rather be without the "". This way, the mail is not full of backslashes (which is nicer :).

Best,
