** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: evolution
  
  In 10.10 and before, Evolution alarms would appear in the system tray. With 
Unity, there is no persistent trace of alarms associated with calendar events 
after the notification bubble has disappeared.
- I think this is a regression: I trusted this function to remind me of 
important appointments, but unless I am in front of my screen at the 
appropriate moment (when the notification bubble appears) I am not made aware 
of these appointments. 
-  
- The workaround is to whitelist evolution-alarm-notify. But presumably there 
needs to be a solution that integrates better with Unity, perhaps a message in 
the message indicator and the icon turning blue, or the date-time glowing blue 
and appointment flashing under the date-time menu?
