SYMPTOMS
========

When you make a recurring daily appointment with the reminder set for one (1)
day beforehand, and the system date is suddenly advanced, you will only receive
the reminder for the present day and the following day.


CAUSE
=====

This feature is by design.

This feature is a result of the optimization performed by the reminders code;
this code caches the next alarm date. If the ring alarm table changes, it rings
the first alarm. However, if an unknown is sent, only the cached alarm and the
next alarm will occur; all others will be deleted.
