On GitHub I have multiple email addresses. I would like people to contact me using one address (i.e. show this address on my profile), but actually receive email notifications using another. However I don't see there being an option for that. Is there any way to do that? What's the point of letting the user keep multiple email addresses while only one ever gets to have any effect.

Github doesn't provide for such an option yet in their accounts/notifications page.
perhaps you can contact the repo admin to setup a service hook
You got it almost right, you'll have to add the other email to your profile settings. However, Github picks up the first listed email address for your gravatar.
So you'll have to remove the email ids such that the preferred gravatar email id bubbles up. Once done, you can re-add the removed email ids.

Yes, you can. There is two different options: one in the Profile "Public email" and one in Notification center "Primary email address".
