That would make sense... Barring no changes have occurred to the accounts/domains on the server.

Only move files that need to be moved that way, and rsync will gzip compress on the fly anyway. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------- Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.
