What is the Status Manager for the users that display this behavior? You will likely find that the Status Manager is set to the service account. Simply set the status manager to the person that should recieve the updates and save the user. This should correct your issue.

| The default Status Manager is the User who has first Published the (new) assignment or a resource to a task. The Admin cannot assign a different Status Manager to a task, only the Status Manager can do so him(her)self, after opening the project. If there are more resources assigned to one task, be sure that the task Status Manager is so for ALL assignments. |

. My mistake!One point of clarification on your post: the status manager can be set to the currently logged in user or another status manager already in the project. This means that if I open a project as PM A, and PM B and PM C are already status managers within the project, I can set the Status Manager on a task to be PM A, PM B, or PM C.
