I use mysqldump --opt dbmail, but I guess it's a matter of taste.


However, remember to execute:

SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;
SET SQL_LOG_OFF=1;
SET SQL_LOG_UPDATE=0;

before you start loading such a backup file. Esp if it's big.

So if dbmail.preload.mysql contains the previous statements,

mysql -e dbmail.preload.mysql dbmail < backup/dbmail.mysql

should be a clean recovery procedure.
