I do it this way, after ical2rem has put everything into a file
included by .reminders::

3 6 * * * local/bin/remind -q -iplain=1 ~/.reminders | mail -s
"Reminders" justin at jalcorn.net

in .rem/defs.rem is:


    IF (defined("plain"))
        SET Esc   ""
        SET Nrm   ""
        SET Blk   ""
        SET Red   ""
        SET Grn   ""
        SET Ylw   ""
        SET Blu   ""
        SET Mag   ""
        SET Cyn   ""
        SET Wht   ""
        SET Gry   ""
        SET BrRed ""
        SET BrGrn ""
        SET BrYlw ""
        SET BrBlu ""
        SET BrMag ""
        SET BrCyn ""
        SET BrWht ""
