What if I don't use Evolution within Gnome? Then I am at a loss, am I
not?

No, it's not, not for me, anyway, since I am not using Gnome (I do not
want to spend my valuable system resources to useless things, hence I
use WindowMaker).

The question remains: is there any way to start this calendar alarm
function in "daemon" mode, so that I do not miss any alarms before
logging into Evolution for the first time?

If there is not any such way, it would be nice to add the feature
sometime in the future (I have to admit, however, that this is in no way
of high priority...).
