Backup doesn't contain emails #146

Closed b-boom closed 10 years ago

The zpanelx backup from the default backup funciton only contains the public_html folder and the MySQL databases.

It would be nice if a backup also contains emailaccounts (and their content). Users maybe want to backup their emal.

This is not a bug. Zipping daily emails is totally crazy.

Email require different backup mode than the one currently used. Imagine you have big mailboxes and holding 7 days copy!

I expect backup mainly over web & SQL and might later think about feature that would allow only Mysql daily while websites less frequently. BUT email it's far far more complicated sir.

The backup of emails is something that the server administrator should be doing as part of their 'main' server backups and obviously exporting out to a remote server.
