Good morning,

I would like to have your opinion on making website backups,
I have been working mainly with Plesk for several years.

I tried backup via Plesk, I tried backups via Wordpress plugins, backup via Plesk to Google Drive, or FTP.

All this works but I'm looking for the best way to recover properly

- httpdocs
- the database link
- and also the domain emails

Note: I don't know if there is also anything else to recover yet?

(but for me, site content, database + email are the most essential.

can also be the dns, mx etc. parameters.)

then if I ever have a problem

I upload the httpdocs folder, I import the database
and for the email I don't know how to do the restoration properly because on qmail I have the maildir folder but it's not easy to read the emails without third-party software.

I'm really looking for a quick way to backup
and if in the hypothesis I have a problem I can restore in 2 or 3
click.

At the same time, recover the backup and install locally on my Mac easily but for emails I still haven't found an idea, except reading the maildir folder with a tool on PC

Do you have any suggestions or ideas to suggest?

reliable and fast method?

thanks
 
Well, plesk backup is a good option, and if you are looking for more options, then you can go with Maildir and Email backups. Mail recovery is also a best option for this.
Thanks
 
I didn't find anything new
I stay with Plesk backup, and on certain WordPress projects I also use plugins for additional backup
