I am receiving 2 emails about the creation of PAT, is it a security vulnerability? or a Bug?

Note: I have 2 emails attached to my GitHub account (both emails configured to same mailbox, means those are alias emails) and we use GitHub Enterprise Server (not cloud)

I found the solution, it's a feature, by default security-relevant mails are sent to backup email Id, it can be changed in profile -> Email -> Backup Email Address.

GHES version: 3.2.9

Adding it as this may help someone. Have a nice day.
