Hi Lars!

Thanks a lot for going through old bugs.

This way you can reproduce the problem using "emacs -Q":

;; Content of ~/diary-test (adjust date + time to be a few minutes in the future):
12/28/2020 15:40 Test reminder, warntime used ## warntime 32
12/28/2020 15:41 Test reminder, colored [background:red]
12/28/2020 15:42 Test reminder combined1, not colored [background:red] ## warntime 34
12/28/2020 15:43 Test reminder combined2, not colored ## warntime 36 [background:red] 
01/01/2021 New year [background:yellow]



(setq diary-file "~/diary-test")

(add-hook 'diary-display-hook 'fancy-diary-display)
(add-hook 'calendar-initial-window-hook 'diary-mark-entries)

(require 'appt)
(calendar)

;; force checking of appointments
(appt-check t)

;; appt-time-msg-list should contain the new appointment
(describe-variable 'appt-time-msg-list)


Stefan.
