How can I turn off my Mail notifications for Gmail?

[aidenh37]

I am now using Inbox for my Gmail account and all email addresses are forwarding to it.

Whenever I get an email, both Inbox and Mail make a notification sound, but Mail doesn't show a second banner (must work it out just after the sound).

Have you tried Settings->Notifications?

Yes. Won't let me turn off for Gmail, presume this is because it isn't a push account.

Turn which part off? Notification sound and alert style are separate.

You're in Australia so maybe iPhones in your country mandate this, similar to how Japanese iPhones are required to have camera shutter sound?

Find your red & white Gmail app. Delete it.

Now everything will be sent to Inbox with its notification system.

All three - badges, sounds and banners.

Don't have Gmail app. Have default Mail app.

There's no restrictions with notifications here. The account just isn't showing up in my notification settings.

So you don't see your account at all in Settings > Notifications > Mail? I'd try deleting Gmail and re-adding it.

Ok

Problem fixed. Had multiple accounts before - now all accounts except Gmail inactive because of forwarding.

turning of notifications in mail

so, by "settings" do you mean "preferences?"

----------

IN gmail settings, my email notifications were already "off."

If notifications were off already in settings how could you still be getting them?
