Windows 10: Curious W10 Mail bug since 1809 Update

I have 4 different mail accounts (Hotmail, Yahoo, Comcast, & Gmail) that I read in both Outlook 365 & W10 Mail.

Although I usually read new messages in Outlook, I have W10 Mail configured to show a merged Inbox and then the Spam & Deleted Items folders for each account (because they can't be merged) in my Favorites. That way, I can easily use Empty Folder to clean junk & previously read mail with 3 clicks.

Each account calls these folders something different: Yahoo - Bulk Mail & Deleted Items, Comcast - Junk Mail & Deleted Items, Gmail - Spam & Trash, Outlook - Junk & Deleted Items. So, I can easily detect which account's folder I'm in by checking the folder name in the Favorites pane.

But, since the 1809 update, W10 Mail has changed the Comcast, Gmail & Outlook folder names in the Favorites pane to read Junk Mail & Deleted Items -- but didn't change the Yahoo folder names! Yet, when I select any affected folder, it displays the correct folder name in the Message List pane.

Any ideas? Anyone else experience this? "It is a puzzlement!"

Regards,

 

Windows 1809 Started the install on Surface Pro 4 but it stopped and the update screen closed by itself.

It started the download of 1809 and I walked away. Came back twenty minutes later and the update page was no longer open. Tried update again and it said it's updated.

It didn't complete the update or state the RESTART NOW.

Update history lists 1809 and states RESTART REQUIRED but since it didn't complete the install restarting does nothing.

So it thinks it's installed the 1809 update but it hasn't. It won't download 1809 again.

ABOUT say's it is 1803.

Suggestions?

 

how to add contact to new mail in w10

My issue is with W10 new mail. Transferring contacts and (if possible) mail messages from old live mail.

I don't understand the People App?

I cannot see any steps to take me to a contact list on the new mail pages.

I have tried saving from old contacts list , but how to import them?

the references given don't seem to line up with mu window in mail.

Then how to import G-mail address list?
