The only time I ever perform offline backups is if the server is offline for
some other, major reason -- like migrating to new hardware that can't be
done using Ed's move server method, if I have to do a restore and I don't
have a restore server, etc.
There's NO need to do offline backups regularly. The way to determine that
your online backups aren't working are test restores.

Subject: Offline backup
how often you perform full offline backup of mail database? is it practical
to perform offline backup every friday after the full online backup? i used
this setup in case my online backup failed.
