My understanding, and how it seems to be working here, is that the emails come from the library were the items checked out.<br>One side effect of this is if the patron checks out items at two libraries on the same day and they are late enough to get overdue notices for both, they will get 2 notices, one from each library. Both notices listing all the items meeting the requirements for the overdue notices. <br>

Hi Josh<br>
<br>
Library email addresses are set in two places. One in Admin which is<br>
specifically for patron update requests, and the other in Libraries,<br>
Branches & Groups, for other messages especially overdue notices. You<br>
may of course set both to be the same address.<br>
<br>
As you say, the addresses set for the branches receive a huge email<br>
including a concatenation of all the notices that could not be sent<br>
because Koha had no email in the patron's account. I have a single<br>
library site so I am not certain how Koha chooses which email to send<br>
the notice to if, say, the patron belongs to one branch and the book<br>
belongs to another.<br>
<br>
