Windows 10: How do I adjust the notifications options for the Windows Mail app?

Hello,

It's been a while since I've used windows and I'm struggling with one major thing.

If possible I would like to remove the archive function and replace it with the trash/delete option in the notification popup for new mail. I only archive purchase receipts and trash everything else, and a lot of my new mail notifications are just newsletters that I'm not interested in but can't quite unsubscribe from.

I looked in settings and notification settings and didn't see a way to adjust it, and I was hoping someone else could help me.

Also, is there's a combined inbox view in the normal Mail app? Or do I need to use outlook?

Windows 10 mail App, notifications


Just started using the Windows 10 mail app. Unfortunately, not receiving notifications. I checked the option to have notifications come up in the Action Center, as well as Notification banners and to play a sound. Unfortunately, not receiving notifications. In the mail app, I tried Setting it to check for messages Every 15 minutes, and based on my usage.
I read somewhere that you can check for items "as they arrive", but this option isn't available for some reason. Is there anything anybody can suggest to try to get new message notifications to show up?

 

Windows Mail App Notifications Disabled (Grayed Out)

Hello,
I have a problem with Windows 10 Mail app notifications.
When trying to enable notifications from system option, I cannot toggle it at all?
Despite the fact that it is already the default app!










Any suggestions ?

 

Mail app not receiving notifications

Hi Dave,

It seems that the Mail app is not running in the background. To show the app in the "Notifications & Actions" settings page, we suggest running it in the background. To do so, please follow the steps below:

• Press Windows key + i to open Settings, then select
  Privacy.
  
• In the left pane, select Background apps.
• Under Let apps run in the background, toggle the switch to turn on or off the background apps.
  
• Once you're done, you may now turn on the Mail app in the "Notifications & Actions" settings page to get notifications.
  

Feel free to post back with the result for further assistance.
