Who doesn't know how important it is to backup your site/blog often? Again, if you use dynamic sites such as Joomla or a forum (e.g. IPB), there is always a risk to be hacked, no matter how security concern you are!

In my experience, it is not always easy to regularly maintain backups, especially, if you don't have a good internet connection. What if your site prepare backups for you and send it automatically to your inbox (Gmail, perhaps)? biggrin.gif

This script do the same:
icon11.gif Backup your whole website/blog by compressing it in zip format

icon11.gif Split the zip files to smaller size so that you can easily get them via mail. (Gmail doesn't allow attachments more than 10 MB, this splitting solves this problem)

icon11.gif Backup your selected database by compressing it in zip format (*NEW*)

icon11.gif Send backup files to you via mail!


Without relying to basic PHP Mail, this script send mail via SMTP (authentication supported), which is much more powerful. In our test run, it could send 250 MB backup file in small 9 MB pieces each to a GMail account! biggrin.gif

Swift SMTP mailer library is taken from http://www.swiftmailer.org/


Download from here: backup.zip
