Description Martin Steigerwald 2024-12-15 10:41:35 UTC

Thanks for that fine tool.

I use it without backing up mails, cause I have 28 GiB in local mail folder and its already backed up by other means.

PIM data exporter does not seem to store "akonadi_birthdays_resourcerc". I bet this one may be auto generated on a new setup. So probably that is fine.

It does not backup "akonadi_maildir_resource_0rc" either… I bet that is due to me deselecting backup up local mail and it makes kind of sense. It might still be fine to have an option to store the resource configuration so on restoring all settings it Akonadi can pick up local mails from there.

Of course if you think that over complicates things, feel free to close as will not fix.

For now I will just store this config file alongside the export.
