In a Google Hangout on Google+ this morning with Google’s John Mueller, he said that when you recover from a Google Manual Action and you get the notice, it should also show up in the manual actions viewer within Google Search Console within a day or two. If not, then you probably still have a manual action or there is a bug with something.

John Mueller responded:
So if you have a manual action even after the email notice that it went away, then you probably have another issue you need to address.
