FULL ACK, but regarding some pitfalls it still doesn't matter. For
example, if you close Evolution before doing a backup and when the
backup is finished you restart Evolution and after downloading some POP
messages successfully, the disk drives fails, you still need to restore
from the last backup, that doesn't contain the latest emails. A backup
never contains the latest state, there is always loss.
