Microsoft Outlook 2019 by default sends notifications whenever an email is received. Due to some misconfiguration, you miss important messages like a meeting reminder or an important email from Office, friend. We can follow these steps, to ensure that you receive the notifications whenever you receive an email.
- The first step is to check the global settings – if notifications are enabled on your system. To check the settings, click on the ‘Start’ icon -> ‘Settings’ icon (as shown in the image below).
- In the ‘Settings’ window, click on ‘System’.
- From the System Settings window, click on ‘Notifications & actions’ on the left. Under the ‘Notifications’ heading, make sure – ‘Get notifications from apps and other senders’ is ‘On’ (as shown in the image). Also ensure the checkboxes are checked especially – ‘Show notifications on the lock screen’, ’Show reminders and incoming VoIP calls on the lock screen’, and ‘Allow notifications to play sounds.’
- On the ‘Notifications & actions’ window, scroll down to – ‘Get notifications from these senders’ and make sure, the notification from Microsoft Outlook 2019 is On. See the pic below for reference.
- Once the global setting for the notification is proper, we need to check Microsoft Outlook 2019 settings. From the ‘File’ menu, click on ‘Options.’
- From the ‘Outlook Options’ dialog box, click on ‘Mail’ and navigate to ‘Message arrival.’ Enable the options as shown in the image below.
