How to check where 'SPEmailEventReceiver' is attached?

Question

I created a simple event receiver of SPEmailEventReceiver. But while creating it, Visual Studio did not ask me on which list/library it needs to be attached. In PowerShell I know that I can get event receivers like this.

$site = Get-SPSite -Identity "SITE"
$web = $site.RootWeb
$list = $web.Lists["LIST/LIBRARY"]
$list.EventReceivers | Select assembly, name, type

But how can I check where the SPEmailEventReceiver event receiver is attached?

Update 1:

I have used ListTemplateId="101" while defining the event receiver so this should be applicable to all lists/libraries, right? For this how to know check where the event receiver is attached?

You inherit a SharePoint site. Some of the lists do odd things and you want to find out if there are there event receivers on the list. If you have access to Power Shell and the SharePoint servers, you can use the following Power Shell code to find out.

Code :

$GC = Start-SPAssignment            
$Site =  $GC | Get-SPSite http://yourserver/sites/yoursite            
$Web = $Site.Rootweb            
$Web.Lists |            
   Where {$_.EventReceivers.Count -gt 0} |            
   Select Title,EventReceivers |            
   Format-List            
Stop-SPAssignment $GC

Code For SharePoint 2007 or 2010 :

[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint")                        
$Site = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite(http://yourserver/sites/yoursite)                        
$Web = $Site.Rootweb                        
$Web.Lists |                        
   Where {$_.EventReceivers.Count -gt 0} |                        
   Select Title,EventReceivers |                        
   Format-List                        
$Web.Dispose()                        
$Site.Dispose()

You could even start at the farm (root) level and drill down to applications, site collections, sites and documents to see each event receiver!

You can add event receiver in element.xml for library as below.

--> It will not seen for all site and sub site. It will applied on only one list instance which is mention by user in Name property of below code.

Code:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
      <Receivers ListTemplateId="101">
          <Receiver>
            <Name>ListName</Name>
            <Type>ItemAdded</Type>
            <Assembly>Test.eventreceiver.business, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=29192015d9531c48</Assembly>
          <Class>Test.eventreceiver.business.EventReceivers.Businesslogic</Class>
            <SequenceNumber>10000</SequenceNumber>
            <Synchronization>Synchronous</Synchronization>
          </Receiver>
      </Receivers>
    </Elements>
