What exactly do you want to backup? If you use IMAP for mail you don't have to worry about backing that up as it all resides on the server anyway. POP of course is going to be large to upload. If you want to backup your contacts you can create an address book of type "couchdb" and it syncs to the ubuntuone service. Finally, if you want to ensure your settings are saved you could sync ~/.gconf/apps/evolution/ and a few xml files in your ~/.evolution directory (i.e ~/.evolution/mail/filters.xml) to UbuntuOne. For the sync you could use conduit. I know this is very round about, but most importantly (and back to my original question), what do you want to sync? - Pete -- Peter Goodall <[email protected]> Product Manager, OEM Services Group office: +44 (0) 207 630 2467 Canonical | http://canonical.com/ Ubuntu | http://ubuntu.com/ _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuone-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuone-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
