Hi,

Earlier this week, Outlook for Android started sending me notifications for a few emails that are now several days ago.

The emails have even been deleted but I get notified several times a day with the notification having the current time.

I am using the latest version of Outlook on a Samsung S8.

Any suggestion please.

Regards, Graham.

    Yea no fix for me. Today it has been fine. But ive been home with my phone not moving. so not in and out of wifi and data. I think while outside moving as it changes signals/towers etc it's triggering it to re notify emails. It always happens going from wifi to data

    even more absurd that its actually been happening for years. There are posts online from 2017 onwards with the same issue. Its not a new problem, insulting they keep saying we are working on a fix. After 6 or so years you need to admit its a flaw and they dont know how to fix it.

    Did the same three times. Even on two different devices and no luck. Seemed to work for some short time (1-2 days) and started again. It is just so absurdly frustrating that this problem already exists for several months now, for so many people and microsoft just doesn't give a damn about it. It's absurd that this is happening on a leading technology company and we even pay for this service.

    Fingers crossed it fixes it for you! Please do let us know. Unfortunately my imap is a work email account so I cant try removing it for a while. I only have my personal hotmail email and one imap account.
