Autobackup not sending emails Can't Post
Hi,

One of my installations of the Autobackup Plugin is not sending emails.

The plugin in working fine in terms of generating the file and saving it on the server.

Also, another installation, on the same server, works fine and successfully sends the emails.

Code
$GLOBALS['AUTOBACKUP_EMAIL']           = 'myemail@email.com'; 
$GLOBALS['AUTOBACKUP_EMAIL_FREQUENCY'] = 'daily';

The backup files generated is about 100MB -- could this be the problem? Anyway to overcome a potential file size limit on the email?

Thanks
Rob

Hi Rob,

The issue is most likely the 100MB files. Most email providers aren't going to accept attachments of that size and your hosting provider probably isn't allowing those emails to be sent.

The best solution would be to find a way to reduce the size of your database (ie, removing old records).

If you'd like us to take a quick look, fill out a 2nd Level Support Request and we can see if we can make any recommendations.

Hope this helps

Hey,

Yeah thought it would be.

Unfortunately no way to reduce database size - it'd help if the autobackup plugin used the gz compression ;)

Cheers
