Are the files in the profile directory sufficiently old to be older than 
the MinimumFileAge? If not, they will not be backed up and there will not 
be any warning, as this is the definition of MinimumFileAge, and it's 
expected that regular backups will continue and will eventually back up 
these files. This should be true of both Box Backup and Boxi.

Cheers, Chris.
