I can't reproduce it using your steps and config. I compared the org config differences. I'm using a different org keyword ONGOING, instead of NEXT. In fact, if I replace NEXT with ONGOING in 1.el, then I can reproduce the issue. This is very strange.. After step 7, I can see it still shows ONGOING text in the agenda buffer, but in the buffer inbox.org, it is been correctly prettified. -- William
