Hi All..

Am working on continous backup of mailboxes using rsync(for e.g by running rsync every 2 min)

Things gets more complicated when users create Subfolders in INBOX , SENT , etc..

If anyone among you did that plz guide& advise.

You don't state much on what this runs on, but I do snapshot backups of my IMAP server consistently by using LVM, and just match my cronjob to snapshot it at a few given times, mounting the snapshot and backing up with rdiff-backup.

Very simple, very easy, and very realiable. :)

Thanks CoolAtt
