Maybe an email once a day to the admin that this threshold has been
reached, and that backups are no longer being scheduled, could be
implemented?

Nagios/whatever _should_ be used to let you know that:
- disk space is almost full
- backups are > some age

But it won't tell you why BackupPC has stopped doing backups - and the
less experienced admin won't immediately know it's because a disk
space threshold has been reached.

Thoughts?
