Allow customized buttons in notifications such as Delete, Mark as Read, etc

Several other email apps have the ability to delete a message from the notification screen without having to go into the app. I know you can archive but having a delete function (or a choice of which function you want) would be awesome.

    This already exists, within the setting of the app you can change the purpose of your swipe. mine are set to mark as read & delete.

    +1 for "mark as read" directly from notification panel!

  • Majid commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    "Mark As Read" from notification panel is required.
    Microsoft developers . People have been asking for it for the last 5 years!

    Just as it is possible to mark an email as read in the app, it should also be possible from a notification. Replace the option to archive the email or make it possible to choose actions.

    When you click on mark as read, this should be reflected in the app and synced with the server.

    add a "mark as read" button in the notification tab in the top android dropdown

  • Dariel Marlow commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Needs "Mark as read" as an option from the Android notification without having to open Outlook.

  • Athan Basweti commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    when the notification comes up in the drawer, please have the ability to "mark as read" i don't feel like opening the email to do so especially if the sync is late because i may have already read it on pc.

    I know of no one that uses archive but everyone I know would prefer Mark as read in notification so that we don't have to actually go into the app.

  • Yinon commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    currently only "reply" , "archive" and "delete" available within a notification.

    There's old suggestion for this but it's closed without adding this feature.

    I will check back in few months top set I'd this feature implemented.

    meanwhile will still use other mail app.

    Need it badly, many messages can be just marked as read from notification without opening the message

  • Hamish Andrew commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    samsung email has this feature and its brilliant because sometimes i dont need to open the email, or am in a hurry and it saves the time waiting for the application to load and all the emails to load etc.

    "Mark As Read" from notification panel is required.
    Microsoft developers I beg you to add this option... People have been asking for it for the last 5 years!

    such as: Mark as read, Delete, Archive, etc..
