What drew my attention to this idea were
this blog entry this blog entry and
this post .
What we want: Sys Admin or the User wants to backup
user@domain.com account.
The idea:
Backup E-mail to a spare IMAP server.
Backup Contacts & Calendars using REST.
Restore E-mail using Imapsync.
Restore Contacts & Calendars using Imapsync.
Take full zimbra backup less often - perhaps weekly. (Zimbra stop, backup, start).
P.S. If Imapsync can sync between an IMAP server and a local Maildir structure then we might not even need the spare IMAP server.
