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
