You need to set up Project Server to actually send e-mails. Your Project
Server administrator should do the following:

1. Log into PWA with administrator permissions
2. Click Admin - Customize Project Web Access
3. Click the Notifications and reminders link in the sidepane on the left
4. Enter the SMTP Server, Port number, and other information on this page
5. Click the Save Changes button

Beyond this, your Project Server administrator must also enter an e-mail
address for each resource in the Enterprise Resource Pool. He/she can do
this by completing these steps:

1. Launch Microsoft Project Professional and log into Project Server with
administrator permissions
2. Click Tools - Enterprise Options - Open Enterprise Resource Pool
3. Click the Select/Deselect All button
4. Click the Open/Add button
5. Right-click on the Type column header and select Insert Column from the
shortcut menu
6. Select the Email address field and click the OK button
7. Enter an e-mail address for every resource
8. Save and close the Enterprise Resource Pool

Let us know if this helps.
