Backing up Mail.app in OS X. Tonight, I was messing around with our Cyrus IMAP server here at InfoWorld and needed to run a test using my mail account. I didn't want to blow away my mail in the process, so I decided to backup my local cached copies of my IMAP mail contained in Mail.app. I thought I had figured out what directories to back up, but I don't play around with mail backups, so I checked around the web for confirmation. This page at the University of Hawaii confirmed what I thought and gave me the courage to backup my mail with confidence. [Chad Dickerson]
