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. 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.
