I use the backup facility to maintain a historical version of TB that I can go back to if I find that I have deleted something I may have needed. For a backup of my current installation, I use 12Ghosts Backup (http://12ghosts.com/ghosts/backup.htm) which maintains a full copy of my /MAIL folder once an hour (this can be set to any value) to a second HD which I use for general backups. The program only copies files that have changed since the last backup, so it does not have a noticeable impact on system performance. This second HD is removeable, so if I am going away, I take it out and put it somewhere safe, away from my PC.
