Should I use a Dovecot process, rsync, a Mac app like Arq or Jungle

Anyone have experience or opinions on this?

I do not have specific experience with using S3, but if rsync is possible that 
is always my first choice, though if you want to backup to prevent ransomware 
issues, I’d use rsnapshot since that will give you history.

If you are concerned about never ever losing a single email no matter what, 
then you need a replication server that supports versioning.

Off-site cloud backup (eg Amazon S3, Wasabi)

I’d like to synchronise our mail store to an Amazon S3 bucket or similar, for 
protection from ransomware.

Server is running on macOS with maildir.

Should I use a Dovecot process, rsync, a Mac app like Arq or Jungle Disk, or 
something else?
