org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines

org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines is a variable defined in `org-agenda.el'.
Its value is

nil

Documentation:
Non-nil means ignore some deadline TODO items when making TODO list.
There are different motivations for using different values, please think
carefully when configuring this variable.

This applies when creating the global todo list.
Valid values are:

near Don't show near deadline entries. A deadline is near when it is
closer than `org-deadline-warning-days' days. The idea behind this
is that such items will appear in the agenda anyway.

far Don't show TODO entries where a deadline has been defined, but
the deadline is not near. This is useful if you don't want to
use the todo list to figure out what to do now.

past Don't show entries with a deadline timestamp for today or in the past.

future Don't show entries with a deadline timestamp in the future, not even
when they become `near' ones. Use it with caution.

all Ignore all TODO entries that do have a deadline.

t Same as `near', for backward compatibility.

This variable can also have an integer as a value. See
`org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp' for more details.

See also `org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date'.
See also the variable `org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options' if you want
to make his option also apply to the tags-todo list.

You can customize this variable.
