In some cases, orders can end up with status Pending, meaning that they need to be reviewed manually. To make it easier to handle such orders quickly, you have the option to enable automatic email notifications, in which you receive all new orders with status Pending for a specified time period. Emails use the Default notification profile and go to the email that is configured there. For more information, see Administration: Configure notification profiles
By default, if you have configured the Sitefinity CMS email settings, the Ecommerce module will send notifications using the default notification profile. For more information about configuring Sitefinity email settings, see Administration: Configure email settings.

NOTE: If you have created your website with Sitefinity CMS version 11.2 or older, the Ecommerce module in these versions used the legacy system SMTP settings. In Sitefinity CMS versions 12.0 and later all system modules use Notification service instead. To preserve working email functionality, after upgrading to Sitefinity CMS version 12.0 or later, a dedicated Notifications profile, named SystemConfigSmtpSettingsMigrated has been automatically created for you. The profile uses the same values as the legacy system SMTP settings and is configured by default for all modules, that were using the system SMTP settings in older versions.
