The stuff in appt.el perhaps? If so, see the docstring of org-agenda-to-appt, in particular the APPT_WARNTIME property. But in general, the notification settings are appt-related ones: afaik, you cannot use things like -1h in the timestamp and have it carry over to the appt settings, although that might be possible "with a small amount of coding". -- Nick
