Without it the server will wind up raising an exception when it tries to return a 404 response. I guess, then, you were not actually getting broken link emails (which have a subject like Broken INTERNAL link on [site] and a body showing the referrer, the requested URL, the user agent, and the IP address of the requestor) but rather server error emails (which have a subject of ERROR along with the requested URL and have a body that shows the traceback of the error)? I don't see how you could have been getting broken link emails if you did not have a 404.html template. You do also need a 500.html template.
