I already have nightly and weekly backups of all the files on the server, but I want to be sending a copy (BCC) of each incoming and outgoing mail to a "backup" user, which can then be downloaded via POP to a client machine for emergency purposes. This is something my company wants to implement, in case the IMAP folders become unavailable or cease to exist for some reason. The backup must be browsable by users immediately, so any kind of "restore" process is not an option. I would prefer to stick with Sendmail for the MTA, but I'm open to suggestions. My setup is currently UW-IMAP and Sendmail, but I'm willing to migrate to something else to make this work.
