I’m sure someone else has a better answer, but you could just rsync the 
/home/vpopmail/domains/<nameofdomain> area without a delete [that is the 
default for rsync]. It’s just a matter of how many times you want to run it per 
hour…

 

Another possible solution would be to do something like this:

 

Create .qmail-<name_of_email_account> for each email account [the .qmail-* 
files go in /home/vpopmail/domains/<domain> directory] with the following 
contents:

 

                /home/vpopmail/domains/<domain>/<account>/Maildir/

                /home/vpopmail/domains/<BACKUP-DOMAIN-AREA>/<account>/Maildir

 

For this to work, you just create the 
/home/vpopmail/domains/<BACKUP-DOMAIN-AREA>/<account>/Maildir directories with 
proper vpopmail.vchkpw protections. A copy of all inbound email will go to both 
areas, the live [top] one and the bottom [backup] area. The only issue with 
this solution, you don’t have a copy of any sent items if the user is using a 
web interface [and you want to catch those as well].

 

Again, I’m sure someone on the list has a better way to do this than I.
