Quoting Kevin Laurie <[email protected]>:
Hi, I am trying to back up my IMAP server to a hard drive. Later I intend to extract all mails for attachments. What do you reckon is the best too to perform this ? Imapsync or Thunderbird (or something else, please recommend) One problem I am having with imapsync is the setting for host2 (being a localhost computer). How does one set a parameter for host2 being a desktop computer. ThanksKevin
You could run Mercury/32 http://www.pmail.com/ as a local IMAP server that could be your 'desktop destination'. Though I'd assume the typical backup solution for a smaller environment would probably use rsync (unless your server is a VM, then you could image the whole VM via whatever utilities the host provides).
