Please help me in figuring this out

Go to "Configure" and click on "My Account Settings" under "More Options" from the left panel menu. Make sure you have the proper e-mail address entered there.
Click on "Notification Preferences" under "Notification Options" and make sure that the "Enable Notifications" check box is marked and Notification Types and Times are setup.
Click on "Notification Methods" under "Notification Options" and make sure the Email check box is marked.
Click on "Admin" menu and then click on the "Manage Email Settings" under "System Config" from the left panel menu. Select your e-mail method, fill in your e-mail in the "Send Mail From" box in the format: "Nagios Admin <your_email>. If you are using SMTP, fill in all of the info under "SMTP Settings".
Click on "Send A Test Email"->"Send Test Email".
See if you are receiving e-mails.

Thanks for the reply it worked for me by going through the info once again
