Understanding what MIAB is telling me

Wanting to learn about MIAB a little more. Can you help interpret the following message? What does each line mean?

The lines after this are output of the apt system process.[quote=“uca, post:1, topic:988”]
/etc/cron.daily/mailinabox-backup:
[/quote]

The lines after this are the Mail-in-a-Box process, most of which is the output of running duplicity to run a backup and then duplicity a second time to clean up any unneeded files left behind.

I’m now getting these messages, but not sure what changed. I was starting to get another message because my secret key changed. I’ve fixed that, so that message hasn’t returned, but this one’s still with me. Is something broken, or is there a way to turn this off?
