Not for hosted-engine notification settings.
This notifications are sent by ovirt-ha-broker also (or better, especially)
if the engine VM is down.

This is completely a different subject: email sent by the engine on
different events rely on the ovirt-engine-notifier service which generally
could be deployed on the same VM which contains the engine.
The relevant events and other options could be set from the admin GUI,
other parameter could be set editing
/usr/share/ovirt-engine/services/ovirt-engine-notifier/ovirt-engine-notifier.conf
