SOLVED ISSUE

I set up my Mail app for all of my accounts, but the notification does not work very well. And each email account has its own tile on the start screen.

The setting for all of my my mail account is
- Notification for all mails
- Download email as soon as they arrive

The setting for my Lock screen apps "Choose apps to run in the background" has all four of my email accounts AS WELL AS the actual mail app

Yet, if I send the mail, it can take up to 15 minutes to receive the mail, or not at all. UNLESS I manually open the mail app.
But what is the point if I have to manually check it myself?

The whole "download as soon as they arrive" is not true at all!

What can I do, please!

EDIT: I readded all my accounts, and now they work fine :)

But I still wanted to ask, what is the benefit of using the Outlook over the regular Windows mail app?
