Stock email app sometimes give me a double notification? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have a hotmail address setup in the stock email app and when I go to the email via the notificaiton in the drop down bar when it brings me to the email in the email app I get a second notification sound and then the email stays open like it is new after I exit from the email.
Hope that wasn't confusing.
Receive email notification > Pull down notification menu and click on the email > Brought to that email > Immediately I hear a notification sound and I see that exact same email come across on the notification panel > Exit email and go to email app and that same email that I was just in is showing as new and not read.
Phew, sorry for that, wasn't sure how to explain. This doesn't happen every time but it is happening a lot to me, stock rooted and on the latest OTA.
Thanks

HTC Mail Widget/Gmail not updating.....

Ok guys. Sorry if I have simply stumbled over a setting or something but for the LIFE of me I cannot get the HTC Mail widget OR the Mail shortcut to notify me when I receive a NEW mail. The only notification I get is in the notification bar, but no "1 new email" in the widget (which btw IS logged into my gmail account)
I have been tweaking random settings and sending emails to myself but still the only way I can actually get to my NEW mail WITHOUT touching the notification bar up top is to go into the actual Gmail APP.
What's the point of the widget if it won't update on it's own and let me scroll through messages?
Is there a PUSH feature somewhere I can't find....I have looked everywhere and it's REALLY pissing me off.
Please don't flame...just got my hero rooted and ModAco 1.3 installed a few days ago....everything else works flawlessly. PLEASE HELP!!!!

Bump...please tell
Same problem here
I'm having the same problem, its not notifying me of new emails unless I actually open the widget.
Mine is connected to my works exchange server.
EDIT: Think I figured out my problem, when I would kill tasks with the task manager it was one of the selected tasks. I've added MAIL to the ignore list and we will see what happens from here.

Constant E-mail Sound Notifications?

Stock Inspire
Using stock e-mail program
If I have unread e-mail messages, the phone will beep with the sound notification every time it checks for mail, until I open the e-mail app. Even if I have not received any new mail, it will beep when it checks for mail until I open the program.
So if I receive a message at 1pm, and it it set to check for mail every 10 minutes, I will receive a sound notification at 1:10, 1:20, 1:30, etc. until I actually open the e-mail app.
Is this normal? Is there a setting I can chage where it will only beep once upon receipt of a new message? I looked thru the settings and couldn't find anything.
Thanks.

Anyone else experiencing this?
This is happening for me too on Gmail.
It is also happening with my txt message. In addition to that, when it plays my txt msg notification, at the very same time it plays my default sound (so it is playing two sounds at the same time).
Are there setting for these that I haven't seen yet?
Thanks.

How do you turn off specific notifications?
I just received my Inspire today and I'm having similar issues.
I've used Windows Mobile and iPhone for years. This is my first Android phone.
Everything is right out of the box with the stock ROM and no additional apps loaded. The only thing I did was setup my Exchange email accounts.
With Windows Mobile and the iPhone I was able to turn off notifications for new emails, but leave it on for text messages and calendar reminders. I receive a large number of emails and I need to have the email notification sound and vibration turned off.
So far I have found where to set your notification sound and where to turn off all notification sounds. I have not figured out how to turn offf just the email notification sound.
Each program has its own notification settings.
Go to mail -> menu - > more - > settings -> notification settings and there you are.
In gmail - menu -> more -> settings -> scroll down to email notifications
Messages - menu -> settings -> received notification

Thanks for the quick response.
An an Android newbie, I was looking for it in the main settings app, not in the mail program itself. I was able to turn off the email notifications and keep the other notifications on.

That is one of the big difference in iOS and Android. In Android you use the menu button within the app you are using to set the specific settings for that app. In iOS you go to the settings area to change setting for all of the apps. It took me a while to get used to when I made the switch last year. I got used to it and now it just makes sense to change settings within the program, not have to leave the program and do it somewhere else.

Notification bug with the stock email app, notifies you a second time after reading

Using stock email app with hotmail email address I have this weird notification bug. When an email comes in I get the notification icon and then pull the dropdown and select the email to read it. As soon as I am done selecting it and while the email is opening I get a second notification of that same email.
Not sure if this happened on 4.4 but I have been noticing it ever since the first update but don't recall if it happpened prior to that.
And it only happens if the notification has been there for a little while before I select it, if I happen to be using the phone and an email comes it and I select it right away it does not double notify me.
Anyone else seeing anything like this?

Email Notification Badges

Hi all .... my apologies if this has already been asked, but I cant for the life of me get the email unread notification badge to work on the stock email app (it's a yahoo email account though)
It updates & shows up only when I manually go into the app, however nothing shows up untill then
Just got the phone yesterday, and this seems to be the only issue I've got so far ....
Many thanks

This was happening to me too. The email settings allow for checking the server from 15 mins and up only to save power.
Go:
email (app)
more (bottom popup widget)
settings
(click your email acct)
change sync frequency to 15 mins) Mine defaulted to 'never'
I'd ideally like push notifications to work with the email app but it appears not to be the case.
Hope this helps

Question Popup notification issue with GMAIL

here's the scenario
1. I receive an email from AAA
2. pop up shows with sender AAA and part of the message
3. I receive an email from BBB
4. instead of popup with sender BBB I still ee a pop up with sender AAA
Anyone has noticed the same issue?
I think the notification is compressed to show only 1 notification (within that same app) rather than listing out the emails that you received for that app.
For me I see list of emails I received so I see all the sender names (AAA, BBB, CCC, etc. with one line content detail).
I recall that it's a setting for the notification that you have to change to list outrather than show only one.
Try ... Settings > notification > Advanced Settings > Show notification icons > select All notifications
There a new always on display update out maybe maybe there's a notification fix in there
I can't seem to get it to install keep getting the error
app not installed as package appears to be invalid

I'm using the COMPACT style.
Gmail by default does not have popup 3nabled though, so I had to change this into settings.
As I said, what is strange is that whatsapp or other messaging apps work ok: first popup I see A, second popup I see B, while with Gmail it's always A, that is the very first I receive.
I'll try to get a screen recording.
