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.

    With me a similar error already for months. Android 13, Google Pixel Pro 6, German.

    I keep getting notifications of emails that have already been read or deleted. A quick Internet search revealed that this error has existed for years without a solution being presented yet. Again and again the same useless suggestions: Clear cache, reinstall app, re-enable notifications only after a few hours, etc.

    We pay for this and other Microsoft services. We expect them to work properly. The Outlook app cannot be used seriously in this way. When will this bug finally be corrected?

    Thanks a lot

    They are too busy putting ads and clickbait in windows 11. Yeah they know we're paying customers, so what. We have no alternative without moving outside the office or windows ecosystem, and fixing the issue isn't profitable.

    So they say its a known issue with no ETA the technicians are working on it, keep an eye out for updates. Argh. So I just got a Pixel 7 added all my stuff emails etc and what do you know it's STILL DOING IT. A whole new device and still no fix. Changing from wifi to data causes it to renotify me of a whole heap of emails. Then randomly during the day with on data if I do get a new email it will re notify me of an old email. How am I meant to know if they are actually new emails or old ones??
