Personally, I don't back up Evolution explicitly. I do back up my home
directory every night (using rsnapshot) but this almost always happens
while my session is logged in. I have been doing this for years and
have never lost an email. I probably also helps that my accounts are
IMAP-based, so what's in the local Evolution store is mostly cached
information.
So it's not clear to me that stopping Evo during a backup is actually
necessary.
Even if you would use POP accounts and Evolution would automatically
download messages during the backup, it shouldn't matter.
Yes, I would expect that. My question is whether all of Evo's database
operations are transactional, though I'm supposing they are.
In which case I think the argument about how to make sure Evo is
stopped before doing a backup is pointless. Just don't stop it.
