If you turn on IP whitelisting, you get an email whenever a user from an unknown IP tries to log in to your account.


That's only after a successful login though, right?


Any time there's a login attempt, an email is sent. This is because you use that email to authorize the IP address that tried to log in, if it fact it was yours.


You're missing the point of my question. I'm saying that the email is *not* sent if someone fails to login to your account (ie, they guessed your username, but not your password). It is only sent if someone logs in with your username and correct password.
