One bit of information that nobody is mentioning.. how big is the
PowerMail message database?

Mine is a bit over 300 mb.  Thats a lot of stuff to back up every
hour!   Additionally, what happens to TM if the database is modified
during the time its being copied?

So, for now, I am sticking with a Retrospect backup every night, with PM
shut down.

TM seems much better suited for use with email programs that maintain a
lot of separate files rather than one big database.
