Nothing in the system and console logs. Less than a minute - nice! On my system, the backups complete with the Powermail folder include, but then in the System Preferences Time Machine pane it just sits on "preparing" for ever. I tried another backup with Powermail added earlier, the backup was successful, but it's been preparing now for well over an hour. This doesn't happen if I remove Powermail from the backup set, as I said.
