Hi Josh,

Ok, I changed the notify settings, and tweaked the "create in advance" 
setting, and I do indeed see the "Auto Created" dialog  for the SX that was 
due on monday  :-)

I figure that this bug is a question of picking a better word than "notify" 
for the string - at last, a patch I _could_ do! 
Except, at the moment, I can't think of anything better to explain it...
I'll mull it over and sort a bug out.

Cheers,
Maf.
