    I do not receive push notifications at all when a new email is sent to me. I have an iPhone 6S and don’t know if there is some advanced setting that I’m missing or what.

  10. Notifications for shared folders

    This is a much needed feature. I need to be notified when I receive email in my shared folders, otherwise the app is useless to me.

    When opening the app, all the reminders from previous meetings pop up even those that have passed. Can you disable those?

  19. Notifications

    The application does not show when a new email arrives. I have to keep opening to check for new mail. This is despite of all notifications being on.
