* Agenda not working or am I misunderstanding how it works?

I have the following completed todo item:

** DONE pay Yolanda
   DEADLINE: <2009-11-24 Tue> CLOSED: [2009-11-25 Wed 11:18]

Yet it still appears in the weekly agenda. Is it not working right or is that 
how it's supposed to work? 

Also, when I hit C-c C-w (show deadlines in current buffer), I get ALL todo 
items, even completed items that are really old. Restricting it with a numeric 
prefix (ex: Esc 5 C-c C-w), doesn't work either. I just get all items plus or 
minus the number of days.

A variable controls that - see org-agenda-skip-deadline-if-done.
There's a similar one for scheduled items and timestamped items.

Someone suggested I use the variable org-agenda-skip-deadline-if-done.
It works on "standard" org files using the default todo keywords -- if I give 
a TODO item a deadline and then set it to DONE, it doesn't show up in agenda. 
Yay!

HOWEVER, if I use custom todo keywords per file, it stops working for that 
file. I'm using these keywords:

#+SEQ_TODO: TODO WAITING | PUBLISHED REJECTED

Todo items set to PUBLISHED and REJECTED still show up in the agenda. Any 
ideas?

I cannot replicate this. With the above setting scheduled items marked
PUBLISHED and REJECTED do not show up in the agenda.

Hi U,

my guess is that you did type these keyword but that you did not
update the internal keyword lists by restarting Emacs, or by
pressing `C-c C-c' on the line.

Thanks for replying. I tried that before as well... Restarted emacs and
C-c C-c on the line. I think I figured out what's going on... it may be
a bug!

If I have this simple file:

#+SEQ_TODO: TODO WAITING | PUBLISHED REJECTED
* PUBLISHED test
  DEADLINE: <2009-12-05 Sat>

it works! (It doesn't show up in the agenda.) However, if I put the
completed TODO item under a subheading, it stops working! The following
simple file doesn't work:

#+SEQ_TODO: TODO WAITING | PUBLISHED REJECTED
* [2009-12-05 Sat]
** PUBLISHED test
  DEADLINE: <2009-12-05 Sat>

The test TODO item shows up in the agenda. Is this a bug? I'm using
Emacs 23.0.0.1 on Windows and whatever version of org-mode that came
with it -- 5.03b

I can't replicate this. In neither case does the todo item appear in the
agenda.

That's a very old version of org-mode. Emacs 23 shipped with version
6.21b. Could you confirm your version of org-mode by typing "M-x
org-version".

Ah... that was the problem. I updated Emacs to a more recent version. I'm now running version 6.30c of org-mode. The problem went away, all is well now. Thanks for your help.
