Hi,

I'm no Bill Shupp (joking, hehe) but here are my thoughts:

> But sometimes (it seems to be allways) i get message from tar (tar:
> domain/trash/Maildir/new: file changed as we read it)
If the directory has mtime different it means that tar will only read the
files it has on its list:
- if files were deleted, they will cause warning and move on
- if files were added, they will be omitted
- if files were changed, they will be stored as they are now

The same applies to a single file.

You shouldn't worry I think, the mail will be eventually sent. It's not a
permanent error.

On the other hand I am using rsync to backup in a script called nightly:

# time rsync -avb --delete --delete-excluded /home/vpopmail/ /nas/vpopmail
2>&1 | mail -s "DUMP VPOPMAIL" [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The command rsyncs my whole /home/vpopmail to mounted NAS on /nas;
It redirects output and sends an email to me when it's done.
It also deletes files in the destination that are not present in the source.
