    Is there any script or any other way to backup mail? That includes users and data.

    All mail users are in the dbispconfig database and all email data in /var/vmail, so all you have to do is to create a backup of the dbispconfig database and all files in /var/vmail

    I'm new to rsync and I'm planning to write a backup.sh script and call it from cron once a day. The goal is to make daily incremental backups of all mail contents for domain.tld. So, would this be ok?:

    #! /bin/bash
    rsync -bavhz /var/vmail/domain.tld /backupdata/vmail/domain.tld

    Thanks!
