philipmanejaThis was already suggested a VERY long time ago and does not work. The only notification you get is for default emails into the inbox.
Some people have many folders and to now go and create a new rule for every message in every folder will take most people a very long time, only to discover it still doesn't work.
I gave up using Outlook on my Android phone a few years back as it just never worked.
I am using the Gmail app for all my mails and this works 100% and notifies me on every email.
This issue has been going on for so long I think that even Microsoft has given up on it.
