Ay idea why Outlook on Android mail notifications include some of the actual email message for GMail mail but for non-GMail email it only gives the subject info?

It'd be convenient to get some of the email message when the notification pops up on my watch for all of my mail accounts, not just the Google ones.

Thanks
 
Are you using the actual Outlook app, or is your Outlook email account going through the Gmail app?
 
I use the actual Outlook app for all of my mail.

Hmmm... I wonder if the GMail app would give a preview of all mail.

Thank you for your response.
 
Are you certain the notification for incoming Gmail is from the Outlook app, or is that one from the Gmail app?
 
I'm pretty certain it is Outlook notification. GMail is set to never sync and the notification shows an Outlook icon.

Update: Yes, it's definitely an Outlook problem and maybe a question for MicroSoft. I installed BlueMail to test it and compare notifications to Outlook's. BlueMail shows email message preview i its notifications for all mail, GMail and non-GMail. If its tablet view would fit better on a Duo, it'd be my go-to mail client.
