 * Hi. I saw that a similar question [was posted here](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/emailing-backup?replies=4),
   and I’ve read that one, but I’m having the same problem. I see the setting for
   the email address where the backup should be sent. I have checked that I’m looking
   at the right email address.
 * I also checked, and I do have the drop-down set to save backups locally and to
   send by email. I had a previous email address and wasn’t receiving email backups
   there. I changed the email address to see if I could have one sent to that address.
 * I’ve been to the “backups” tab to have a backup made and emailed to me at both
   addresses. No luck. I have checked, however, to see that a backup was saved locally
   on my server.
 * Am I doing something wrong?

 * I am having the same problem with one site only.
    I just installed the plugin
   to 2 other sites for clients and did receive the emails. I did the same set up
   for all. Don’t get it!
