  1. Mail app doesn't show notifications for the Gmail account, what this could be?


    A had a similar problem when I used Outlook for Android with Gmail, I missed important notifications because the synchronization got broken and Microsoft fixed it way later.

    Now, the notifications aren't showing in the action center, but emails are being downloaded normally.

    No notification banner in windows 10 mail app in gmail account

    Hello,

    I have noticed that recently my windows 10 mail app does not show the notification banner when I receive an email from a gmail account. In another outlook account it does appear. Notifications only appear when I manually open the app. The sync and notification settings on both accounts are the same. I've tried removing and re-adding the gmail account, uninstalling and reinstalling the Windos 10 mail app, resetting its settings, re-registering it, but nothing works. Any idea what happens?

    Mail not showing notifications


    I am not getting toast or action center notifications for Mail app, although in the Mail app settings, I have notifications enabled.
    In Windows settings, "notifications & actions", both the mail app and the calendar app are missing from the list.
    I have not set up the calendar app, but I did set up the mail app with my gmail account, and aside from notifications, it seems to be working properly.

    What is gMail's Mail App Password

    I have a number of gMail accounts. When I look at my security settings in Google. I see 3 entries for each account..

    Mail App Password
    Thunderbird (which I'm moving away from)
    Mailbird (which I'm moving to)

    I'm curious about the first one, Mail App Password. It seems to have been created approx 2 years ago. But I cannot think what it could be for? As far as I know, I don't need Mail App Password unless it is somehow associated with the Thunderbird and Mailbird emails. If I delete it. Will my Thunderbird/Mailbird programs still have full access to my gMail Accounts. Any light shed on this would be helpful.

    I also have 2 step authentication on for all accounts. I assumed this was for verifying me as a user. But I'm wondering if Thunderbird/Mailbird need some settings to cope with logging on with 2 step authentication?

    My basic problem is I cannot see any differences in google for all of these accounts. But some of my Mailbird accounts won't send mail. So maybe there is a setting in Mailbird, which I've overlooked, for why this is happening?
