Not having a backup for that host for more than
EMailNotifyOldBackupDays is the trigger.   And EMailNotifyMinDays must
have elapsed since the last annoying notification to that user.   The
idea is that such email should be rare and taken seriously since
people tend to ignore frequently-repeated messages and the backuppc
status page is there for the clicking if you want to check more often.
