- inglor 11y agoFrom the front page: "Optional P2P backup, so even if your Own-Mailbox is offline temporarily you don't lose any email from your self-hosted addresses as long as you maintain 70% up ratio." and "16GB storage, possibility to extend memory or do backup via USB drive/HDD." So really, it has both off and on site backup.
- djrogers 11y agoThat sounds more like an MTA availability backup, not a data backup solution...
- timboslice 11y agoI'm also wondering how the P2P backup works exactly? As an example, if it comes with 16GB storage and my mailbox is 10GB, does that mean other people's boxes would contain the full 10GB dump or just pieces/blocks a la bittorrent?

- quadrangle 11y agoYou really should be mirroring on your local computer which you back up locally as well
- jlgaddis 11y agoIf you use an IMAP client, you have a local backup. Alternatively, even if you exclusively use Webmail, you can still maintain a remote backup (using imapsync or similar). There's also the "optional P2P backup".
