    Not really an expert, but did you check in Settings / system / notifications (like in 1st picture below) and then further down select Mail app and set appropriate values also. Or just check, that notifications are on.

    New mail app

    Wait in the Store a bit , then after a few minutes , I got a small notice under the INSTALLED word that said an update was available.....maybe you have it already though ? I am on Version 17.6868.41111.0 now , look in Mail's Settings>About for your VER.no#


    Strange Andre , you pics look different from my Win10 , if I scroll all the way down I have notification buttons for Mail and individually for two of my accounts too , not sure why only two accounts though , there are 5. If you Click on each App name you are given even more options to check box (or uncheck)

    I'm on Windows Insider version, could be a little different. But I don't have any individual setting for separate accounts. Could be some leftover from previous apps.

    Second picture shows extra settings for Mail app. There are some more, but not important.

    Any one else have any thoughts on this notification.
    I know its not an important issue not having a notification of any new mail.But we all think that its nice to know when something there waiting for you if its just a silly advert or more important a mail from here.with some result maybe bill gates will read my question [joke].Don't suppose he cares.
    Anyway thanks.

    New mail app

    Thanks
    Silly question how will I do that?
     
  9. The Mail and Calendar App has been updated as of 2 days ago to
    Version 17.6868.41141.0
    Also yes if you have notifications ticked you will get notified when mail comes through
    For anyone reading this you link all your e-mails so they come into one inbox so you don't have to look at each separately.

    Use Option Two or Three, depending if you want to apply to only one account or multiple accounts.

    That is the latest version correct , mine has been updated since I posted that.....

    Personally I don't like Unified Mailboxes , there is a reason I have 5 different accounts.....

    @ menu..... I just did the same test and I got the popout , are you sure you are on the latest version?

    After you have reinstalled Mail & Calendar, make sure you follow post #2 and do the settings as shown in the screenshot.
    Send yourself an email.
    Then see if you get mail notification.
