[support] backup migrate - no email

[Jo (Drupal Acct)]

  Ok on from this, the email does arrive using the code in the inc file, 
my concern is the warning message, as i dont really like having 
unecessary warnings cluttering up my install.

My tech guys are saying

"What it normally means is that the PHP:Mail function has been sent more 
information than it requires and was unable to process all of it."

any ideas how to proceed?

TIA
