Sounds like an issue with emailing in general for the domain/site, rather than just our plugin. BuddyPress Registration Options doesn’t handle anything with password reset emails, for example. We only send out notifications regarding pending/approved/denied users. Same thing regarding registration confirmation. That’s BuddyPress itself sending that one.

The email problem is solved, it was not the plugin.
But the plugin does not work, it is activated but users receive the email with the activation key
That’s by design. We don’t prevent the activation of the user. Upon activation, we set a user meta key on their user and use that to determine access. If you have the “Moderate New Members” option set, the user will only be able to view BuddyPress/bbPress content, but they won’t be able to interact. If you have the “Private Network” option, which is the 2nd checkbox, then they will be restricted to just their BuddyPress/bbPress profile IF they try to access BuddyPress or bbPress content. They will not be restricted if they visit the “Contact Us” page, or a single blog post, for example.
Long story short, the plugin only restricts access to the “social network” areas, not the whole site, and the users are able to have their user activated.
