Description Sebastien Bacher 2005-10-19 10:12:19 UTC 
This bug has been opened here: https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=18082

"Since upgrading to Breezy, Evolution no longer shows missed calendar alarms at
start up.  This has caused me to miss several important notifications, and I am
sure it affects other people who rely on this feature of Evolution.  I have
looked around on the internet, and this doesn't seem to be an intentional
change, so I am filing it as a bug.  If you know how to fix this, please let me
know."
Comment 1 Chakravarthi 2005-10-19 13:56:15 UTC 
code was changed to avoid the bug #261625 and likes ...
there will be changes in alarm ui in future that will take care 
of missed alarms. confirming this .
Comment 2 Chakravarthi 2005-10-19 13:59:35 UTC 
also to avoid some valid use cases like if a person is opening his evolution after
a vacation in which he might have had a lot of appointments (unimportant)...
he shouldn't be bombarded with alarms .. needs a good ui change.

Perhaps we could display missed alarms for the current day for now.
Comment 4 Sebastien Bacher 2005-10-19 18:42:17 UTC 
the current day option would be nice so if you start your session 2 minutes
after the start of a meeting by example

show missed alarms

This patch modifies code to make sure that none of the current day's alarms
go unnoticed.
