Hello, i'm little getting problem how to backup emails. I'm using vpopmail + qmail-scanner st patch, eg i want to backup whole domain (with .qmail files, vpasswd files and user dirs). Structure is follow: /domain1.tld vpasswd... .qmail-... user1 user2 /domain2.tld ....
When i start backup (using tar) i set sticky bit (chmod +t domain1.tld) for each directory to backup. But sometimes (it seems to be allways) i get message from tar (tar: domain/trash/Maildir/new: file changed as we read it) it seems that are messages which are directly delivered (not over qmail) because when is message delivered over qmail - i got deferral: Home_directory_is_sticky:_user_is_editing_his_.qmail_file._(#4.2.1)/. I have in per_domains settings smaildir setup (eg delivering emails to directory) - and this is source of this problem. I don't want use forwarding (it doesn't work good for me). Is there any other solution how to override this behaviour ? (i need to backup this). If tar failed (whole domain haven't backup). Thank you for your advice and help.
