Do this:
$-> date +'%s'

Take the resultant string, edit
~/.gconf/apps/evolution/calendar/notify/%gconf.xml and modify the
"last_notification_time" line to use that string for mtime and value.

Or you can take that date string and use gconf-editor.  Drill down to
apps->evolution->calendar->notify and change the value for
"last_notification_time" there.
