Check you have enabled it. Do you receive other emails from the gallery?

So you don't get any emails at all sent by coppermine (e.g. ecards) after having upgraded? If yes, then review the SMTP/sendmail options in coppermine's config. In older versions (cpg1.3.x and older), the smtp settings used to be hardcoded into the mailer include file. Starting with cpg1.4.0, those settings went into the config options (and subsequently into the database), with the advantage that you don't have to re-apply your settings every time you upgrade now. You'll have to figure out just once what you need to set up.

OK, so Coppermine is able to send emails in the first place. Then make sure that you have entered valid email accounts in coppermine's config for "Gallery administrator email" as well as for your individual admin account (when being bridged to SMF, the one you have set up in your SMF profile should be taken into account). Next step would be to monitor the spam bin of your inbox: maybe the admin approval mails get caught by your spam filters. You could temporarily use another email address as admin email address in coppermine's config to verify.

Its same adress that before when it worked with older version. Its not same email adress that i use in my profile, its same adress what is smf forum adress also. Weird. Maybe i just try another adress then.

It's hard to recommend anything, as we can't see what is going on, server-sided. You could try to track this step by step, i.e. review the server logs and make sure that the email got sent OK.If yes, try tracking the way the email took and where it got blocked. If the email didn't get sent in the first place, the logs should give you an idea why as well.
After all, Coppermine uses the same method to send emails all the times: if sending emails works in one place, it should be working in another place as well. If it doesn't, there obviously is something wrong in the entire chain, but very unlikely that coppermine is to blame: after all, it doesn't have an email engine of it's own, it just uses the one on the server.
Sorry, I have no idea what else to recommend.

Just out of thin air, without doing anything at all?
