Because most people have their email signed in on their mobile devices or other conouters too, so when u check your emails on your phone you'll see the email. And know someone accessed your account.
I agree it is not the best way to notify the user but it's simple and effiecient as well as effective in most cases.

I thought that this might be the case, but figured maybe there was something more to it :)

Maybe they should just wait for you to log in from you're usual address before sending the notification email?

Dunno, silly Google...

I mean, if it's supposed to notify me that a possible intruder has accessed my account- why does it send the notification during the intruders session when he can just delete the email ?

Ok, I understand, but what is the point of them notifying me about it?
