Any way to detect changes in eMail folders (Thunderbird...)?

[papyturbo]

Hi,

first, let me confirm the great use of VV as synchroniser, backups, etc...

My question :
- I use a good number of folders + sub-folders to store my mails, in Outlook Express and Thunderbird : 1 for each project, client, supplier...
- everyday, backups contain every email folder, which consumes time + network traffic.
- I suppose the folders' timestamps have changed, but it is clear that 90% of them have NOT changed for weeks or even months.

Is there a way (I did not find in settings) to compare source and backup by file size only ? or a better trick ?

Thanx,

Etienne

Hi,
I am also using the Thunderbird e-mail client and have many folders too. I did notice that it's enough to just open a folder and Thunderbird changes the file timestamp (unfortunately): which means VV will copy the file to the backup location. I never checked if the size stays the same, in that case the option is in profile settings -> comparison

thanks
