I do delete emails so mine are only 2-3G but I would not think so. I only restore occasionally when I am trying to find something. I'll restore my weekend one tonight on another machine just to check. If I have a problem I will certainly report it. -- Thanks Luigi -----Original Message----- From: Mr.J <coml...@sonic.net> To: evolution-list@gnome.org Subject: Re: [Evolution] Restoring Evolution Date: Mon, 29 Aug 2022 18:33:45 -0700 Mailer: iPhone Mail (19G82)
Thanks, Luigi. The USB hard drive was not disconnected at all. Evolution did the backup and finished. Could the size of the file caused the problem? I don’t delete mail. > On Aug 29, 2022, at 6:21 PM, Luigi Cantoni via evolution-list > <evolution-list@gnome.org> wrote: > > > Sorry about your problems J. > Since you were writing to a USB did you wait until all the buffers > were written? > I write to HDD then copy to a USB to put it onto another machine and > the USB looks like it has written (i.e. says done) but the buffers > take minutes longer to write out fully so Linux says its not safe to > remove it when you try and unmount it so you have to wait. > > If that happened then your file is not complete and you have a major > problem. > I don't know enough about zip to know if partial recovery is possible > of the good data and the rest is just lost. > _______________________________________________ > > evolution-list mailing list > > evolution-list@gnome.org > > To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... > > https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list >
