Hi, I on many computers have a gmail account synchronization with the Mail app for Windows10 (everything works great), so it's a problem that concerns your configuration.

Thanks for testing. So you receive email alerts from Gmail in your Mail app even when Mail app is closed?
If yes, could you please check something for me?
In your online Google Security settings, do you have 2-step verification enabled and does it show "Email on Windows" when clicking the App Passwords? Please see the attachment for details on how to see this.

No, mail for Windows10 does not require( application password ) there are no notifications - because I always disable this application in the background.
The mail application for Windows10 is classified as safe , so you do not need to confirm the 2FA account, if it is a personal computer , in the organization it depends on the administrator settings.

Is it possible to send from your phone instead? Because the issue is about not receiving alerts when the mail app is closed.

Yes, if the mail app is closed, I don't have notifications, but I don't use the default settings – and this behavior is great for me!
I would probably go crazy if the mail sent notifications all the time (I would do anything to turn it off).
So someone else needs to confirm this mail behavior in order for it to be reliable.
Best regards
