Hello Friends

I have a sharepoint 2013 site where I have a user with a mailbox as the site collection administrator.  However, when users request access to SharePoint 2013 pages the email address the requests are going to is not the site collection administrator

This is from the ULM logs

Succeeded on attempt 1 to send mail to recipients: Administrator@cloud.local

This is not the email address that is assigned to my site collection administrator.

I only just assigned the site collection administrator a few hours ago but shouldn't this be an instant change?

Any help greatly appreciated.

As per my understanding, you want to send an email to a particular person when other users request access to site.

You need to add the user's email to site access request setting. You can see the option in site settings page:

You can use PowerShell to configure this setting for every existing site in your environment.

hope this helps.

Great!  that works a treat now.

Also, I find I am not receiving emails for the likes of sites being over quota to the site administrators.  Would this be something similar?

If a site collection size has crossed warning size, an email would be send to users added as site collection administrators. So if you want to receive that email, you needed to be added as site collection admin on respective site.

Hope this helps.
