Multiserver - email backups created on both primary and secondary server

    Hi,
    Backups of mailboxes are created on both email servers (mx1, mx2) in a multiserver setup (configured as per the perfect server tutorial).
    This causes multiple problems:
    - customer sets their backup count to 3, but actually 6 backups will be shown in control panel which causes confusion for customer
    - backups that are created on secondary server can't be deleted from control panel, delete button will only work for backups on primary
    - hard disk space is wasted on secondary by doubling of these files

    any tips how to solve this?

    You could delete the mail backup plugin on one of the systems. The plugins are in /usr/local/ispconfig/server/lib/classes/cron.d/ and we should fix that in the code too.

    Looks to have worked. I also deleted redundant mx2 backup entries from the database to clean up the UI.
