I get alarms on recurring events with no problems, both with Sunbird and with the Thunderbird extension. I have a daily meeting that pops up its alarm dependably. Is there something else going on?

Confirmed in Sunbird 0.3a1, please fix :( 
This is major showstopper for me from using this release.

Even though you're not technically losing data, this is almost as bad, since it could cause users to miss meetings.

Should be fixed in the latest nighly builds.  We query for occurrences in the calAlarmService now.
