I've spoken to the PM for this feature and he sent me the following information. Please let me know if this helps (or not).
1) Did you check your spam/Clutter folders
2) Do you know if your Azure Active Directory (AAD) User Principal Name (UPN) is different from your e-mail address? The UPN should be the username that you sign into Power BI with. Power BI sends emails to user’s UPN. In cases where UPN is different from e-mail address, and the UPN doesn’t accept emails, the user will not get the scheduled refresh email. Other Power BI emails may fails as well (e.g. refresh failures). In general, the guidance is that admins should configure their tenants such that users’ SMTP address should match their UPN.

- I checked the spam folders before - no result. Usually we do get mails from other functionalities like "shared dashboard" and "you are added to a group", but we miss other mails like alert mails or subscirption mails.
- UPN and email-addresses are different, yes. I'm not in the position to tell our admins how to administer their tenant - so that approach is likely to fail in my scenario. And because of the fact that we recieve some emails and some not, the behaviour seems to me more like a bug.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
1. Spam and Clutter are empty
2. We get emails on refresh failures so this cannot be the case.

Hi Fellow:
Wanted to know if the subscription emails work if the source dataset is getting refreshed through OneDrive?
I have a PBIX file which I have saved in OneDrive for Business folder. I then got onto PowerBI and used "Get Data"-->"From File"-->"From OneDrive for business" and then imported it into PowerBI.
Now whatever changes I make to that PBIX on OneDrive (through PBI Desktop), they are updated to the Dashboard automatically within an hour but the subscription mails don't seem to be going out even after I refreshed the data on PBI Desktop and saved it.
Is there something that I am doing wrong or missing on?

We actually received a response from the Power BI team to check our mail server logs and found that it was being sent to the UPN address but the sender domain was being treated as suspicious so the mail was blocked.
The incident was thus raised as an issue with the Microsoft Exchange Server for them to correct this. We are still awaiting a response from the Microsoft exchange incident.

Hi , I am having the same issue.
Not receiving emails from my corporative email ( same domian as the login account). I have Power BI PRO, I am loading the info from a local excel file, and also receiving emails from [email protected] when there is a refresh issue.
Do you know if still the described bug is pending to solve ?
Thanks for your response, Cheers,
