Turn Off Windows 10 Action Center Email Notifications

In Windows 10 the new action center display notifications from all apps, including the Mail app. Whenever you get a new email, the Mail app will send out a desktop notification and lists the new email in the Action Center.

If you get a lot of emails, the notifications can be rather annoying. If you added multiple emails accounts and you would like receive new email notifications from an specific account you can change the settings to do just that.

If you change your mind, you can always come back and turn on new Mail notification banner & sound.
