Thanks, did that, and am getting the following email:

So, email seems to be working, I just don't understand why nobody is
getting email automatically?

You only receive an email when there is a problem.

I created a problem by creating  backup of a share that does not exist
on a host machine. Does the email only get generated at midnight? The
reason I ask is because the backuppc server has not been left on over
night yet?

The email is sent when the nightly jobs finish. Also some settings under 'Email reminders, status and messages' control when emails are delivered: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html#email_reminders__status_and_messages
