No e-mail notification after reinstall on new PC

I'm running the commercial (paid) version of Macrium Reflect Home, version 8, build 6036 on Windows 10-64 Professional.   I bought a new PC and transferred my Macrium license from old PC to new PC and uninstalled on old PC.   Everything went smoothly.   I configured the Email Settings and Defaults dialog and used the "Send test email" which was successful.   I then configured Default Email Success and Default Email Failure dialogs.   However, I am not receiving any E-mail notifications that my backups ran.   I can see that they're running via the Logs tab and I also get Windows notifications that they ran but no e-mail.  On my old PC, I was receiving E-mail.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Changing the default email notification settings only affects the default settings for future definition files you create.  It is not a "policy" that is enforced on all existing jobs.  If you have pre-existing definition files, then you will need to edit those definition files, click Advanced Options, and configure the desired email settings for that specific job.

Aha...I added the e-mail specs for the job.  I must have set up the defaults after I created the definitions.  Thanks for your help!
