Getting reminder emails even though the certs renewed

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is: Casazza.net

I ran this command: certbot certificates

It produced this output: Certificate Name: casazza.net
Domains: casazza.net www.casazza.net
Expiry Date: 2019-11-29 03:50:17+00:00 (VALID: 86 days)

Yet I am still getting emails telling me ny certs are expiring in less than 20 days. I confirmed with https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ that the certs renewed.

https://letsencrypt.org/docs/expiration-emails/#when-you-get-an-expiration-email explains this:

If you’ve issued a new certificate that adds or removes a name relative to your old certificate, you will get expiration email about your old certificate. If you check the certificate currently running on your website, and it shows the correct date, no further action is needed.

70 days ago you issued a certificate for casazza.net by itself, and then later you added the www. subdomain in a new certificate.

Now that the original certificate is approaching its expiry date, you’re receiving emails about it. You can ignore those emails as per the above.
