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.
(For further reference, here's a Microsoft Support article: Using Microsoft To Do with flagged email from Outlook - Office Support)

Hi @KellyDJones, thank you for the response.
Flagged email is enabled in To Do, but it does not really show any emails I flag in Outlook.

@Luka_Tripalo - How are you flagging emails?

Solution@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.

@SteveEd wow, thank you so much for all the input! I guess we can only hope that MS will fix this some time in the future :(

Hi,
just wanted to say that I'm also experiencing this issue. I have tried flagging the mails in the Windows 10 mail app, Android outlook app and the outlook.com web app but it does not appear in neither the Windows 10 To-Do or Android app in the "flagged" smart list.
I hope that this is fixed soon, I like the idea behind this feature. Currently I manually write tasks about specific mails.

@Luka_Tripaloand @peterjuras Flagged messages began to appear this morning. I checked in the MS Store and saw that To Do had been updated. Hopefully this is resolved.

Hi, I'm also have the same experience.
even if I uninstall the office and setup it again.
But when I tried to flag and unflag the email by the other account, it works....
what's wrong with To do....

@Luka_Tripalo I had this issue too. What I figured out was that it doesn't take any flagged email from before I opened the Task list the first time. The way that I fixed it was to go into my email and unflag and re-flag what I wanted to keep. That fixed it. I can't believe that it doesn't do a better job of syncing but that did work. Just be careful of messages that are flagged in a thread, it will add everything in the thread, at least that's what it did on mine. I'm on a Mac but that should not matter as much as it's browser based.

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.

I had the same issue and did some investigation, I found this article...
To save you time it contains this wording which may be your problem, I believe it is the problem we are facing.
Note: This feature is only available if you’re using an account that’s hosted by Microsoft, such as an Outlook.com, Hotmail.com, or Live.com account. It’s also available if you’re using an account hosted by Microsoft but using a custom domain.

@Luka_Tripalo I ran this command in Windows with Outlook closed, and it fixed the issue immediately. Steps are shown here:
Flagged mails not showing up in TO-DO-list - Microsoft Community
I hope it helps.

This fixed it for me, and it has worked perfectly since. Thank you!!!
