I've been using the Calendar for a long while I think I set it up when using the Lightening add-on. I used to be able to add a Custom Email reminder from the Set up Reminders dialog. The Choose a Reminder Action had the option to send an email. This option has disappeared. The only thing I have done is to add a Google Calendar so I can use it along with my phone's calendar. The events created before this issue still show the email notification on the tab.

Can anyone explain what has happened to cause this and what action I can take to get the email reminders back?

It seems that old version could send email reminder, but current version cannot.
