Probably that user browsed your site in russian

Hmm
That notification mail, is that not sent from MY site to me 
Then it should be in english 
don't understand

Coppermine is multilingual. Users can chose from one of the supported languages. Cause coppermine doesn't know about the fav language of the admin, it sends out the confirmation in the language the commenting user was browsing the site.

It's a known issue that emails sent around by coppermine don't display in the language of the recipient, but in the language of the sender. If you don't want users to see your site in russian (and subsequently you don't want to receive emails in russian), delete the file russian.php from the lang folder (and all other languages that you don't want/need).

I'm having a similar problem.
Only so far I've only had it with notifications of new registrations, and in German.
The thing is though, that I have created the new user myself as a test.
And I was using the Dutch version of coppermine at that time, so I don't know why the e-mail was in German.
The gallery will only be in Dutch with the exception of possible missing translations which may be in English.
So I've tried deleting all but the Dutch and English language files.
But the e-mail is still in German, or it tries to be in German, but since there's no language file it's an empty e-mail.
Isn't there a setting to choose an administrating language which will be used to contact the administrator.
In most cases this can probably just be the same as the default language.

No, such a setting doesn't exist. As I suggested before, it's a known issue or missing feature.
