i ll do backups with rsync on maildirs with courier ( which has also : in filenames )
Stupid question: with CIFS as target filesystem?
no never, why should i do this, nfs , ssh etc should be faster and more secure etc
Because there are some chars which are AFAIK taboo on Windows file systems (colon being one, AFAIR -- luckily my memory on that is hazy :)
jo as i said cifs may not like some stuff, but i see no reason what force using cifs, after all you can rsync the maildir dir to another dir on the source server, tar it afterwards and copy it over cifs, as workaround this should work ever, and easy scriptable
