Re: One-off backup

Is that a divorce? Or else a little bit better spelling and respect for the lady is called for? And I don't like criminals serving bogus law papers and hacking into my mail any more than anyone else does.

I run a small email server for me and the missus. Six dovecot users.

Our host is migrating our server instance. They usually (99.9999% lol) go off without a hitch.

As we don't have dovecot running elsewhere, I'm assuming doveadm is the wrong tool.

If we want to make a one-off backup prior to the migration, is shutting down postfix and running tar czf mailstorage.tgz /path/to/mail okay?

Thanks.
