 * Hi –
 * I have two WP sites, both on 4.6, running in Nginx/Ubuntu 16.04. They use the
   same nginx/php 7 setup.
 * One sends emails on completing the backup; the other does not.
 * One lets me modify the settings for the backup; the other does not.
 * Is it something to do with the settings in wp-config.php?

 * Yes, it was – in my `wp-config.php` file, I needed to remove the legacy `HMBKP_*`
   variables.
