Windows 10: Email Notification from Microsoft

I received an email notification purporting to be from Microsoft stating that there was unusual activity on my account and with the "link" provided I was to go to my account, answer a security question and re-set my Password. The Microsoft email address was No-Reply. This seemed suspicious to me as I have not used my Microsoft account for several months so I deleted the email.Please provide commentary on this notification as to whether or not it is genuine.

Email notifications problem

Hello all!
After 3 years i opened my very very old email and saw all techpowerup notifications in there.
After deleting all notifications, i wanted to unsubscribe from receiving email, but the problem was that after unsubscribing, i still received emails! I dont want to unsubscribe from the threads in this forums, i just dont want to receive emails.
How can i remove email notifications?

I changed this and nothing changed at all

 

(SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

 

Notifications and Email

Hi, Sandeep_KM,

Thanks for reaching out and my apologies for the delay in replying.

This isn't a technical issue/problem per se, but a technical limitation perhaps. What I would like to be able to do is to process an email in Outlook, i.e., open it to read it, file it or delete it and have that action affect the notification, so that
I don't have to make it go away. As the system works now, if I use Outlook to access the message, I have to then take a second action to clear the notification as well. This means there are two separate steps to remove the distraction of an email that has
already been dealt with.

Additionally, my original MSFT account was a Hotmail account and though I prefer Outlook and wish I could align them completely and retire Hotmail, that doesn't seem possible. The consequence is that I get double notifications as well as the email
itself. This duplication also affects calendar entries: I get duplication reminders, etc. All of this affects efficiency and productivity.

Any fixes or suggestions?

Thanks,
