StevenUnderwood Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Now if I can get it to run automatically, I'll begin to feel I can trust email again, a bit. I run MailStore automatically from a schedualed task each night. "C:\MAIL\MailStore Home\Application\MailStoreHome.exe" /portable /c archive --id="1" I then have a command file I run from time to time (could schedule that as well) to mirror the files to the network. I have another command file to mirror back to C:\Mail so it can be viewed on any machine/account on my network. Sometimes it is a pain having so many home machines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndav Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I don't suppose anyone has come up with a backup solution for Mac OS X other than relying on Time Machine... That's a nice solution for individual file rollback, or even for restoring/migrating a machine, but not ideal for a failsafe email backup I think... When the outage happened last week it happened that my Mail program was shut down, so I immediately copied ~/Library/Mail/ to another location, and for good measure I also right-clicked that same directory and selected "Compress Mail" which compressed it to Mail.zip in the same location. Just in case. Thankfully, things returned to normal within about a day. But it reminded me... again... that I don't have a very great email backup solution in place......... So, any Mac OS X email backup solutions people have found? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hank Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Running Virtualbox, to run Windows 7, to run Mailstore (when I remember to) is still the best I can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
