Hello Ashique,

E-mails are only sent if the SMTP server is configuration is done. To receive  email

notification you must configured the SMTP server :

suggest that you make sure your ISE is configured with SMTP server (in Administration > System
> Settings), and use the following parameters:
-Disable user account after : <days>
-Display reminder after: <days>

Configuring the SMTP Server to Support Notifications

You must set up a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server to send e-mail notifications for alarms and to enable sponsors to send guests their account credentials using e-mail or Short Message Service (SMS) text messages.

---

Step 1 Choose Administration > System > Settings > SMTP Server.

Step 2 Enter the host name of the outbound SMTP server in the SMTP server field. This SMTP host server must be accessible from the Cisco ISE server. The maximum length for this field is 60 characters.

Step 3 Choose one of these options:

• • Use email address from Sponsor to send guest notification e-mail from the e-mail address of the sponsor and choose Enable Notifications .
  • Use Default email address to specify a specific e-mail address from which to send all guest notifications and enter it in the Default email address field.

Step 4 Click Save .

Also you can customize  the type of alarm. To enable and configure alarms:

In regards to the password reminders, this is for the admin accounts . You can configure as below

Administration > System > Admin Access > Authentication > Password Policy >
Password Lifetime > Send an email notification prior to password expiry after xx days

Hope this information helps.

Hello Ashique,

                          It depends on how you customize the email. It can be done both ways.

Sample alert :

when you set the Password Lifetime settings for sending an email reminder to administrators in Administration> System> Admin Access menu> Authentication > Password Policy

"The password for your local admin "adminxxxx" is expiring on Sat Dec 20 11:25:56 EST 2014. Please update immediately, by going to https://server.domain.local/admin, signing-in, and clicking on the user name at the upper right corner. "

and the other :

"Your network access password will expire on Sat Decc03 08:45:31 CDT 2014. Please contact your system administrator for assistance"

Here is a link below  to the email notification customization that is supported used for formatting the email notifications:
