Ok. From the FAQ and the archive it says that only the ~vpopmail/bin/* files will be
over-written during upgrade, not the ~vpopmail/domains or ~vpopmail/users directory.
But how about ~vpopmail/include and ~vpopmail/lib? When making a backup, I'd have to
make a copy of bin, include, and lib directories, right? And when something goes
wrong in the upgrade, I can just put the files right back in?
