Hank points out that notifications do not happen automatically just because you an email address is added to your notifications list.
"Notifications are never sent automatically when you post a new entry. To send a notification to your readers on a particular entry, select that entry for editing. In the Send a notification section, enter the text of the message you would like to send. You can also include the excerpt from your entry, or the entire body of your entry, by checking either of the checkboxes to the right. The message sent to your readers will include a link to the entry, followed by the message that you enter."
So, what you need to do is to scroll down on your entry page and click in the box down the bottom of the page that reads "Include entire entry body" to get the notification sent. I had been assuming it did this automatically--it doesn't. I proved the old saying about what happens when you assume. Seems from my test today that it will send the notification whether you click in the box and click either of the send buttons.
