Hi Bernt,

Thanks for your setup recipe. However, I noticed I failed to explain
what I meant; the old entry remains in appt-time-msg-list even if you
call org-agenda-to-appt.

So, the procedure to reproduce my problem is the following:


1. Add the following in the agenda file

* TODO test
 SCHEDULED: <2012-01-14 Sat 12:00>

2. Call org-agenda-to-appt

3. Change the SCHEDULED time-stamp in the entry like this

* TODO test
 SCHEDULED: <2012-01-14 Sat 12:00>

4. Call org-agenda-to-appt again  # ADDED THIS

5. appt-time-msg-list has the old entry

 ((1380)
 #("12:00 TODO test" 6 15
  (org-heading t))
 t)
 ((1390)
 #("12:10 TODO test" 6 15
  (org-heading t))
 t)


I found how to fix this. You can tell org-agenda-to-appt forcefully
clear the old entries by passing non-nil to the first argument of
org-agenda-to-appt.

This is how I use it:


(defun my-org-agenda-to-appt-when-saved ()
 (when (member buffer-file-name (mapcar 'expand-file-name org-agenda-files))
   (org-agenda-to-appt t)))

(add-hook 'after-save-hook 'my-org-agenda-to-appt-when-saved)


Note that this will clear all entries stored in appt, including the
ones unrelated to org-mode. But if you are using appt only from
org-mode, there is no problem.
