Where can I get email notifications on any transactions to/from an address I do not control?

There was at least one site that did this I remember.

The only one that still works is http://www.bitcoinmonitor.net/. I don't see an option for watch-only at blockchain.info.

Only blockchain.info is still up among these, and I could add a watch-only address but I never got the notification email for an incoming transaction on that address.a3nm 2015-10-21T00:17:29.577

http://bitping.net will send you email notifications on any transactions to/from a bitcoin address.

As of October 2015, the only services that still seem to offer email notifications (for free) for transactions on an address (for which they don't need the private key) appear to be:

  • http://blockchain.info/wallet with the option to add a wallet as watch-only. It doesn't seem 100% reliable (it missed a few transactions initially), but now it seems to work and gives a notification pretty much instantly.

  • http://blockonomics.co with which I had a temporary problem with validating the confirmation email, but seems to work otherwise. Notification emails arrive a bit later (maybe they wait for the transaction to be confirmed or something like that?).

Yes, blockonomics waits for two confirmations on blockchain before sending out email Source: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Blockonomics

You can add that address to blockchain.info/wallet, as watch-only if you prefer, and enable email notifications.

(didn't try that myself with watch-only addresses, so this might fail)
