Flagged Emails not Syncing with Online To Do
Luka_TripaloJust wanted to add that I'm having the same problem. Just noticed this morning. Flagged mail doesn't appear in To Do for Win 10 or in To Do online. They do appear in my Android app (Nine Mail and Calendar) which is not a MS product. I've reset the app, uninstalled/reinstalled the app, tried unflagging/reflagging the messages online and in Win 10, and unflagging in Windows Mail then reflagging in Nine Mail on Android but have had no success.

Edit: I just tried a fresh install of Win 10--Didn't solve the problem. I know that sounds radical but it was easy for me to restore a backup image and pick up where I left off. I even tried restoring an even older image from last week and that didn't work either.
Hello Luka_Tripalo - In To Do, do you see the Flagged Email list choice on the left?
I ask because you have to enable Flagged Email in To Do and once you do, you'll see the Flagged Email list option on the left.

I had the same problem. Closed outlook, re-opened, opened ToDo, then in ToDo settings I toggled the "Flagged Email" switch from On to Off, then back to On. Then I pressed the Sync button at the bottom. Fixed.
- This worked for me, thank you!
I have been using flagged emails to To Dos for the past few months. I've been liking it a lot. This morning, when I flag an email, it is not showing up in "flagged emails" in To Dos. I've checked the settings. This is a bummer.
Using outlook.office.com and to-do.office.com
Yes I also am having a problem with this today. I switched back to the "Old" outlook for now. The "new" Outlook is useless.
- Toggling the switch on and off and restarting outlook worked for me
- This worked for me, thanks!

This fixed it for me, and it has worked perfectly since. Thank you!!!- It works for me, too. Thanks!
- Thanks, this worked for me.
To fix the issue in the IOS app, delete and reinstalled. All is working well! - Confirmed this works on Windows 10 Pro - simple fix. Should be best answer!
Cheers
- The syncing isn't working for me either. I tried the web Office email app and To Do and initially flagging emails showed up under "Flagged email". However when I flagged emails from Win Outlook these only showed up in Win Outlook Tasks and not Microsoft To Do.
I installed the Win Microsoft To Do app and this is working in the same way as the web version (and ios app). Also when I tried flagging emails in the web Office email app again, they no longer show up under Flagged email either. Whatever I've done has broken it further.
I Restarted Outlook and Microsoft To Do and re-flagged emails, this made no difference.
Real shame as To Do and My Day is a great idea.
