I have long been frustrated by trying to backup my email in Windows. The files seem buried in hard to reach places. Every time I backup and restore, I seem to loose something. I relied on a lot of various methods to try to secure my data.
Now this newly born Ubuntu evangelist has seen the light. Ubuntu’s default email program, Evolution, has a super easy way to backup and restore files. There are some command line tutorials out there but the most useful I have linked to below. Backup is done right from the program and is only a few clicks to get through. Needless to say, I am again impressed.
