Make use of appt-disp-window-function.
Here's some code that does that. It's pretty damn crude, but it works
and if nothing else, will get you started. :)
(defun appt-mail-appt (min-to-app new-time appt-msg)
(compose-mail diary-mail-addr
"Appt notification")
(insert (concat min-to-app " minutes to appointment\n" appt-msg "\n"))
(call-interactively (get mail-user-agent 'sendfunc)))
(defun jdm-appt-disp (min-to-app new-time appt-msg)
(appt-mail-appt min-to-app new-time appt-msg)
(appt-disp-window min-to-app new-time appt-msg))
(setq appt-disp-window-function 'jdm-appt-disp)

All-
I am using the diary to keep track of appointments, and in particular
I use the fancy diary display, and appt-make-list as a
diary-display-hook, so that I get reminders in emacs of upcoming
appointments. But I want email reminders.
I'm a bit disappointed that there is nothing like "appt-display-hook",
so that I could just email myself the appointment whenever emacs
decides to display it. Is there a way to get this behavior?
