You would also need to actually sign up to receive emails for certain events - the config section in your post just defines which email address is used for the sender, not the recipient (aka the 'system' and not you). In order to sign up to receive notifications you need to be logged in with the account (and have the email set in the User account settings), then you right-click on a content node, choose 'Notifications' and select for which events you want to be notified in the popup window. You should then receive emails if another (Umbraco) User account performs actions on the nodes that you have signed up for.
Also make sure that your server can actually send emails and that you have configured your SMTP server correctly in the web.config if it has properties other than the standard ones.
Notifications don't send emails
Hi,
What do I need to set except:
<notifications>
<!-- the email that should be used as from mail when umbraco sends a notification -->
<email>[email protected]</email>
</notifications>
I don't receive emails.
Thanks,
kukuwka
In order to be able to send emails it is necessary that you provide a working e-mail configuration in your web.config, have you checked that?

Thank you very much.
It works.
