[Evolution] Automated backups

[ard <arddix sfr fr>]

Hi

re 3.28.5-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 

Is there a way to automate the evolution backup? There does not appear to be a command line option to call via a cron job

or is it enough to simply tar

~/.config/evolution

~/.local/share/evolution

When I use the built in command it takes a very long time - up to 10 mins, I know my backups are large - around 1.5G, but a simple tar takes a lot less time

Thanks

Tony
