In iCalendar a VALARM is part of a VEVENT. In Emacs the equivalent of a VEVENT is a diary entry and the equivalent of a VALARM would be an appointment notification. An appointment is generated (via appt-make-list etc.) from a diary entry but it is not part of it. icalendar import and export converts a diary file from and to an ical file. Appointments are (currently) not involved. There appears to be no obvious solution how to implement VALARM support. (One could add a VALARM to each exported VEVENT scheduled 10 minutes or so before the event. But that would be rather stupid.) Any suggestions? Ulf
