My Apple Watch is only saying "You have a new message"... it's like it's making fun of me because it knows I then wonder what it's all about

How can I change my settings to enable my watch to show me the title and sender of the email? The notification by itself is worthless and distracting. Can you advise on how best to change this setting?

This maybe a privacy setting you have on where your watch will only let you know that you have a new message. Once you unlock your iPhone you should be able to see the full email message with the name of the sender. use this photo below as reference and it can help see by a preview of the email you maybe getting from a

sender.
