I've tried searching in mail settings, and then in app settings but i couldn't find anything regarding notifications for emails (other than playing a sound). But when i'm in the browser, or another app...i dont get any toast notifications. Is this just an OS thing right now, or have a missed a setting somewhere?
I feel the toast notifications for wp7 are sub par, they just dont provide me with enough information when i get a new text and not even when i get a new email so i have to leave the app im using to go directly to the text or email application.
for example i will get a text notification and often times the details of the text or the sentence itself are too long to fit in the notification window. how about this:
when the notification hits, is it possible to let the ENTIRE messsage stream in the notification window box that appears at the top of the screen? just like it does with android?
Also can we make further use of the toast notification window to include new email messages too? to inform us that say 5 new emails have appeared?
as good as these ideas are, some will desire the opposite saying that the fact it shows some of the text message even when the screen is locked allows for people to see your private texts... so it goes both ways...
that and you're asking for this on the wrong forum, this is something you should suggest to MS directly, either through social.microsoft.com or by twitter

which rises the suggestion to allow a preference in the toasrts that would:
allow full message playback (on/off)
no message playback. (on/off)
no messages on lockscreen (on/off)
three options that would be very nice ...and simple

Still don't understand the Oreo notification system.
Heres an example for Samsung's messages app
What's the emergency notification?
And what's the difference between the general notification and new messages notification?
These are the same 3 options for most notification settings.
Please help
New Messages Notification - self explanatory, I believe, General Notification is i.e. Delivery Status, Emergency is Network Messages (name may differ, as I dont have english set).

Thanks, I understand that now
I been getting spam text messages and I have on spam and fraud protection on. I have notification for it turn off but still getting notifications. How can I get it to stop alerting me everything I get a message. It kinda defeats the the purpose of having it on.
It isn't possibe to block all spam. The Messages app will be using an algorithm and likely a database to determine what is spam and what isn't.
A better choice is to be proactive and get your number removed from whichever service keeps messaging you.

I could be wrong, but I think the OP (correct me if I'm wrong, @VUser16) is saying that Messages is blocking the SPAM, but it still gives a notice it blocked a text, so it's almost as annoying as just allowing SPAM through. i.e. Google Messages is substituting its notice that it blocked SPAM instead of the original actual SPAM text.
They're not complaining that it's not blocking all the SPAM. Almost all SPAM I've ever received is from nefarious senders, not actual services I've signed up with, and mistakenly given them my phone number and okayed them to send me texts.
