Finally I found this!!! thank Paul

Hello Paul,

I love your mod and it saved my forum once after a crash.

Would it be possible to build in an Email Backup option?

Due to backups becoming larger over time something like this would be great:

Enable Backup being emailed
Split backups for Email into multiple files of size: X mb

Each file could then be emailed separately to prevent file size limitations on some email servers.

This option would greatly improve on the security of db backups in case a drive crash occures and local backup files get lost/corrupted.

I really love this mod! Thank you for all the time and effort it took you to create it Paul. It is much appreciated.

I am wondering, is there a way I could make it so that it deletes all previous backups in the directory before writing the new one? I would only like to keep one day's backup if possible. Or would there be a way for it to delete all but the last X number of backup files before writing the newest one?

Thank you!

EDIT: Nevermind, took the time to go back a few pages and found Paul's solution of using just the name of the day (Mon, Tues, Wed, etc) in renaming backups so that it will only have 7 days total. Thanks Paul!

Perfect! Thanks Man from Italy!

:) Thanks

Does this stop the cpanel backup from running?

Ths has no connection or interaction with cpanel.

Paul why this mod is not included in vb 4.2 ? this one is more important then "Members who have Visited Today" or "Who has Read a Thread"

Because its not one that was chosen. :)

What changed in vb 4.2.0 that caused this to need to be upgraded? Just curious, is all.
