I've got a pager, so no problem - I can just have it send an email to my

according to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218432 it is
greyed out because it has nothing to do with the client side
(=evolution).  it can only be used if the server one is using (Sun's
server) implements it, otherwise you would have real problems to get
email alarms if your machine was shut off or something.

No problem... I wrote a simple shell script to send the email based on a
single argument, and it works great!

Or does it?

Twice now, I've been away from the computer all day, and never received
a single alarm - only to receive five or six moments after I unlocked my
terminal!

(I have verified, by adding logging to my shell script, that the
bottleneck is in whatever process is responsible for launching my
script.)

evolution-alarm-notify?

Has anyone heard of this before? Does anyone know of a workaround?

not really, i remember though a message on the mailing list:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2005-September/msg00142.html

cheers,
andre
