Hello ! Why not using rsnapshot. I have an array used for backup with rsnapshot. You can step back 1 hour with this elegant backup script which copies only changed files. The other ones are hard linked. Or you use an backup imap server to which all your mails are delivered. Rgds. Franz On Thu,

Hi, I'll quote myself here, I wrote it some time ago on this list: 1) I'll make a dump of all mailboxes to the text file: su - cyrus -c "ctl_mboxlist -d" > /var/lib/imap/mailboxlist.txt And I can restore it with: su - cyrus -c "ctl_mboxlist -u" < /var/lib/imap/mailboxlist.txt 2) I will make a
