How do I backup SurgeMail?
• Backup surgemail.ini which is found in the windows directory or /etc if on UNIX • To backup the mail you need to backup the directory that stores all the mail. You will need to check this location in surgemail.ini look for “g_mailbox_path” and that will give you the directory to backup. • To backup the user accounts, if you are using NWAuth for your user database (which is the default) then you should backup all the nwauth* files in the SurgeMail directory. • Finally you can backup the SurgeMail directory which contains the programs, the temporary work area for queued messages, and the templates etc etc. On Windows you can just use something like winzip to copy everything, on UNIX based platforms you can use tar and gzip or whatever you prefer.
