Hello,
We have configured $Conf{EMailAdminUserName} so emails with warnings
and errors are delivered to the backup admin. Our users are all on
different domains. I know you can set $Conf{EMailUserDestDomain} for

No, the only values for $Conf{XferMethod} for backups are smb, rsync,

We run BackupPC on CentOS 5 64-bit and it's working fine. Since Ubuntu
is even shipping a BackupPC package I wouldn't know why you'd have a

Yeah, but Tino's question was why you'd want to use zip instead of a

can't be stored in a zip file (AFAIK)
