Ah, great, thanks! I have been looking at the wrong node all the time. However, the manual node you're pointing to disagrees with the claim that those are equivalent: >If you need both a repeater and a special warning period in a deadline >entry, the repeater should come first and the warning period last > DEADLINE: <2005-10-01 Sat +1m -3d> However, the manual may be incomplete. Thank you, problem seems to be solved.
