After checking deeper into it, it's more complex than I tought. There is no alarm notification either from dbus or the evolution api. So the only possible thing that could be done without re-inventing everything is to patch the evolution-alarm-notify daemon to make it add an item to the

An idea for this would be to modify evolution-indicator to make it add a nodification for alarms and not just emails. I'll try to findout if the alarms are accessible in evolution API's or what would be the way to clear the notifications in the indicator. -- You received this bug notification
