Hi, I have a big problem with Bacula and the backup of my Cyrus mail store: it is backing up way too much.
When doing incremental it's supposed to look at modify time (which for many mails - one file per e-mail - is months or years past), but it appears to look at the access time instead. Result: yesterday I moved a big mail folder with subfolders, causing the access time but not the modify time of all contents to change, and now Bacula is backing up everything. Looking at the restore function in bconsole, I see the file time given is the access time, not the modify time. When doing `ls -la` I see the original modify time, long time ago. When doing `ls -lu` I see the access time, which is the time these mail boxes were moved (yesterday). And when doing `dir` in `bconsole` the time that I see is the access time; not the modify time! How to stop this unnecessary backup? It's annoying and wasting disk space.
