This point was being discussed on the beta list.
The backup utility has worked well for me on the three occasions I've
used it. However, one of those occasions was not without problems.
The initial backup wouldn't restore. It said that there was a problem
(I can't remember what it was, but the message wasn't specific).
I then started looking through the settings of my installation. I
found a nonsense path for one of my account's attachment directory.
The path was from one of my previous installations (I've been moving
the current installation around, using the same one since I started
using TB!). After correcting the path and doing the backup, the
restore worked.
You can imagine how I would have felt if I didn't have a working
installation to fall back when the backup didn't restore.
So when using TB!'s backup, watch out for any errors that are
reported. If errors are reported, don't rely on the backup since you
could lose mail or the backup will not restore. You'll have to first
fix your installation, provided you found where the problem is, and
trust the backup only if it has occurred without any errors.
Interestingly, I got no error messages when I did the backup that
failed to restore.
