Documentation

Interval in minutes at which to display appointment reminders.

Once an appointment becomes due, Emacs displays reminders every appt-display-interval minutes. You probably want to make appt-message-warning-time be a multiple of this, so that you get a final message displayed precisely when the appointment is due.

Note that this variable controls the interval at which appt-display-message is called. The mode line display (if active) always updates every minute.
