I do delete emails so mine are only 2-3G but I would not think so. I only restore occasionally when I am trying to find something. I'll restore my weekend one tonight on another machine just to check. If I have a problem I will certainly report it. -----Original Message----- Subject: Re: [Evolution] Restoring Evolution Date: Mon, 29 Aug 2022 18:33:45 -0700 Mailer: iPhone Mail (19G82)
Thanks, Luigi. The USB hard drive was not disconnected at all. Evolution did the backup and finished. Could the size of the file caused the problem? I don’t delete mail. On Aug 29, 2022, at 6:21 PM, Luigi Cantoni via evolution-list <evolution-list gnome org> wrote:
Sorry about your problems J. Since you were writing to a USB did you wait until all the buffers were written? I write to HDD then copy to a USB to put it onto another machine and the USB looks like it has written (i.e. says done) but the buffers take minutes longer to write out fully so Linux says its not safe to remove it when you try and unmount it so you have to wait.
If that happened then your file is not complete and you have a major problem. I don't know enough about zip to know if partial recovery is possible of the good data and the rest is just lost. _______________________________________________
