I have looked through the Sophos configuration options and below is a list of commands that you can preform to get proper e-mail alerts:

/opt/sophos-av/bin/savconfig SendErrorEmail true
/opt/sophos-av/bin/savconfig SentThreatEmail true
/opt/sophos-av/bin/savconfig EmailNotifier true
/opt/sophos-av/bin/savconfig EmailDemandSummaryIfThreat true
/opt/sophos-av/bin/savconfig Email your@emailaddress.com 

To remove an email address from the list:

/opt/sophos-av/bin/savconfig delete Email yoursecond@emailaddress.com

You can repeat the Email command above with a single email address and until you delete that new email using the delete command it will remain, so you can add multiple addresses at different times (the first time, add your address, then later add another technical addy.)
