I get loads of junk email and I don't want the watch pinging every 5 minutes. I just want it to download when I check as it should do. I much prefer it that way. All the email notifications from AVForums are coming through as are messages from my brother so fingers crossed it is on now. Thanks for the help.
As we're chatting I'm checking my email through the watch and then jumping to the phone to go on AVForums. Seems to be downloading the emails fine now and deleting them from the server as well when I delete them from the watch, which is just how I wanted it.
Another question if peeps don't mind. If I check my email with my phone and receive three emails, should they appear on my watch if I go and check it immediately? Or does the watch only download emails you have not received on the phone?
As mine currently stands I have the watch settings on custom (only downloads one email if on mirror iPhone) and watch will download all emails that are waiting to be received but only if I haven't yet downloaded them to phone. If I download them to phone first and go back to watch it only downloads he first one email. Can someone check their watch please and see what happens if they download emails to their phone first and then go to the watch?
I dont have my Apple Watch at the moment but I remember I could go into the email app and view all of my emails that were in my inbox, regardless of where they were viewed first.
Not sure... maybe it's due to the phone not having the downloaded copy?
Try viewing all/ some of your emails on your phone till the blue unread email symbol dissapears and then see if they are then viewable on the watch.
As I say, I'm not sure in your scenario as you manual retrieve emails with Outlook.
Give it a try anyway.
