[HM] Re: reminder or to do utility

[Barry Lyden]

Hmmm, I'm not exactly sure what you meant by your statement. Yes, it's 
true, notifications can only be sent when iCal is running. If you turn 
off your computer or put it to sleep, no notifications will be sent 
until you start it (and iCal) or wake it up. This is true of all 
calendaring programs that I know of. But once iCal is running, 
scheduled alarms will send their notifications. Once you schedule them, 
they won't be wiped out by turning off your machine.

HTH,
Barry
