 * Hi: I am using your plugin but oddly there are numerous backups going to my server(
   hostgator) and they keep causing over the limit disk space issues. They have 
   indicated it is because of the plugin but this does not make sense to me since
   the backups go to drop box not the server. Is this true? Am I missing something?
   Thank you in advance for your help.

 * The only thing that is written to the file system is the database backup which
   shouldn’t cause over the limit issues unless you have very little space, eg less
   then 150 MB.
