 I used to get instantaneous email notification whenever I login to the backend or anybody with bad intention try to illegally login to my site's admin page. It has been at least two weeks now and I don't get any email notification when I login to the Admin page. This makes me very nervous since I used to get several illegal Admin page access attempts a day and now I don't get any of them.

Hello Oscar,

can you please double check if the option Email this address on successful back-end login has any value in it?

Please see attached the complete setting of my WAF configuration page.
You will find on page 4 of the attached document, the answer to your question.

We are using Joomla to send out emails, can you receive your site emails?
However I just noticed that you are using gmail.
Can you please try with another email address?
Gmail has very tight spam policies, and your email could be blocked at all, no only being moved in the spam folder.
Don't ask me how I discovered this "hidden feature"...
