Hi, this is something I've noticed recently, but it's really annoying.


Whenever I get an email to my iCloud email account, I get two banners that display on my computer. One banner stating the email/message, and then another stating exact same message but with "(iCloud)" in front of the message.

Why am I getting duplicate banners notifications?

Yes, they both appear in the top right corner.

How do I determine if it isn't? It looks like the same exact Apple banner.

Check the notification icon. Are they have the same icon on both banner? Open notification center and there you will see if they are from the same app or not.

I did some tests. If I get an email from anyone, but myself, I get a duplicate message like what you see above.

What am I looking for?

I noticed I had the same email under "email addresses" twice with @mac.com and @iCloud.com

I removed one of them. Not sure if that will help, but there are no other options on the website that could help as far as I can tell.
