I don't think so, and i'm not sure on how it could be implemented. Maybe a :WarningAtDay: property? Conceptually this requires that we're able to distinguish between postponing the date a todo is displayed on and postponing the todo itself (the day it's supposed to be done)... All this might be a bit confusing. If you need this for only a few todos, you might assign a DEADLINE to them, then set `org-deadline-warning-days' so that they pop up in the agenda view at the desired date. -- Bastien
