It does not send emails, but notifications to your parent device.
It will send one when it sees your hub go on/off, or your dsl goes down and another when its up.
It will flag any new device (and any subsequent mac changes/alterations for a device) that has successfully connected to your network. In order that you can check and set its profile settings.
It also flags a new admin app setup and any set time limits.

The notifications are set on as default, but can be set on/off for individual items like I mentioned above, look in the Buddy app settings>Notifications.

You need to ensure that your MySky account Sky Talk Shield is set to 18 for that to work correctly, The Sky Buddy is your parental control per device or for your whole network.
Also, setting that allows the Buddy app to send a notification to you remotely, like the hub on/off etc.
