Steps to reproduce

1. Within the dialog that allows a user to edit their Simple Payments information, they have an option to select the PayPal-associated email address that should receive the payment, but no option to select the email address that will receive notification from WordPress.com.

What I expected

Working with a user planning to transfer site ownership, they found they were receiving email notifications about their clients' simple payments, with no option to change who receives those notifications.

What happened instead

The WordPress.com docs state:

WordPress.com will also send an email for each purchase. This email will be sent to the user’s email who created the button. You can also expect a monthly report for all your Simple Payment buttons. This email is sent to the site plan owner.

This suggests the button creator will continue receiving all the email notifications, even following a transfer of site ownership.
