Description of problem:
Most visible with calendars requiring passwords, but users don't want to store
calendar password within evolution, they rather enter it each start.

For such calendars the alarm notification is not run on start, but rather
later, when the password is known, which means all the alarms in time of
not-active can be lost.

Thus I would suggest to store last-notification time per calendar, say as a
property in an ESource, and when not known, then choose date say a week back,
to rather re-notify for older events than lost them at all.

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
