Great, thanks :)

OK, if you see it again, or anything like it, please let us know.

What exactly does the email say? What does your notify script say about 
backup-error?

What does the notify script say about backup-ok? Did you upgrade from a 
previous version of Box Backup and keep your old notify script?
