Yes, though this only happens with active appointments – inactive
appointments are not highlighted in the calendar and not visible in
the diary.

Active appointments, on the other hand, are visible in the diary and
the agenda and mark a day in the calendar.

This is not perfect since I would like about some things without a
mark in the calendar (I have a note like "[2010-08-25 Mi 24:00] 4270
Vokabeln ausstehend" for nearly every day in the near future due to
my VEP¹, don’t want that to show up in the calendar but a little
reminder in the agenda would be nice…), but it works most of the time
as expected.
