Email Backup with Large Attachments

Thread needs solution

When attempting to backup Email, it goes through the first round and then incremental after I've removed most of the emails. But if a new email is very large because of an Attachment or Embedded file (like video), it hangs and reports 1 minute remaining, but never completes.

I tried removing a single email over 10 MB and it then worked fine as long as the email sizes are small.

What do we do to backup any and all emails, especially if someone sends me a very large email file?

William,

Is this using the 'email' backup option or selecting the email database file via a Files and Folders backup?

What email client are you using?
