imap & rsync - doing backup & restore
Hi ALL...

I have an IMAP server & I have setup rsync to copy all mailboxes (MailDir) to a remote backup machine.
rsync is working fine and is copying my files.

I need some advice on how to restore a particular mailbox when a user makes a request
assuming she has has deleted an important email.

my rsync command & options are :

Code:
rsync -avt --log-file=$log_file /home/vmail/ 10.0.0.x:/home/vmail

Thanks
CoolAtt
