Following comments in another bug discussion, I ran <code>cd; gconf-
editor</code> and noticed that
apps->evolution->calendar->notify->calendars == [] while
apps->evolution->calendar->display->selected_calendars ==
[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED]

So, I thought I might as well try to populate the notify->calendars[]
list with the names of the calendars as they appear in
display->selected_calendars[].  First, I tried to copy and paste text
from the "Configuration Editor" window without success.  Then I typed
the names into a text editor and then right-clicked on
notify->calendars[] and selected "Edit Key".  Finally, I clicked "+Add"
for each calendar name and pasted the text in from my text editor
window, clicked "OK", and then "Quit".  I restarted Evolution, created a
test appointment on the Exchange calendar to occur in 17 minutes and
happily received a notification in 2 minutes (15 minutes before the
appointment)!

Now, the remaining question is, "Why does the local Personal calendar
give alarm/notification/reminder without being listed in
notify->calendars[]?"  Even more troubling, "Why aren't any calendars
listed in notify->calendars[] when two are selected in the preferences
for both display and notification?"
