I want to backup my mail at the beginning of every month with a cronjob,
cataloging it by date and then gzipping. I have gzip support for my mail
program to read this as standard mbox files once compressed, however I
just would like to setup a cron job for this. This is what I have so
far...
* 0 1 1-12 * mv /home/deklown/Msgs/backup-inbox
/home/deklown/Msgs/backup-`date +Y-%m` |gzip
I am not sure what to do after this
maybe ...|gzip -9 $1
