Notifications.SendEmail doesn't work in Backtest; cTrader Test email tool does

Hey everyone:

I've configured my email account in cTrader. I know it's correct because the cTrader Test Tool from clickAlgo works perfectly. See image below. However, when running my bot in BackTest mode, I receive no emails. 

Here is the code that never sends an email. I have run it in Visual Studio both with debugging on and off. Here is the code:

if (SendEmailWhenPositionOpenedClosed)  //Yes, this is true. I know the code enters this IF block because the Print statement is executed.
            {
                string emailMessage = String.Format("Opened Position \"{0} {1}\".\n" + "Position comment: {2}\n\n", position.Id, position.Label, position.Comment);
                Notifications.SendEmail(EmailFrom, EmailTo, "Opened: " + position.Label, emailMessage);
                if (DebugLogMode)
                    Print("Opened: Emailed {0} Opened: {1} {2}", EmailTo, position.Id, position.Label);
            }

To eliminate all other possibilities, I even modified the code to have it in the OnStart() method as follows:

       protected override void OnStart()
        {
            Print("OnStart: Starting SuperProfit Bot");
            //my real email is replaced in the code below just for posting to the forum purposes
            Notifications.SendEmail("postingpurposesonly@yahoo.com","postingpurposesonly@yahoo.com", "Starting CBOT", "This is the message saying your cBot has started.");
            Print("OnStart: Email should have been sent!");
            // Put your initialization logic here

Both Print statements output to the "Log" tab. However, no emails are received. 

Does the Notification.SendEmail not run when backtesting? Or what else could it be?

Thank you.
