Hey Reed,
Firstly, congrats on 2nd place in the create-a-thon. Good job!
So yeah, great plugin. Actually kind of using it as a general backup tool at the moment, which is great. Killing multiple birds with one stone here
.
A couple of issue I had which were all on my end, but I thought I'd mention them here incase anyone else is having trouble. Maybe add them in a 'Possible Problems' section on your plugin page?
1) Make sure all your backup directories are owned by the same user as your php/webserver processes. 'chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www' in my case. They should be set this way anyway, really!
2) If you're sending to a GMail address, be aware they don't accept .zip extensions! (edit: or maybe it does, just not zipped .xml or .php or something *sigh*) Suggestion: zip encryption feature!
3) If you're sending the backup to your own mailserver, make sure it's configured to accept attachments larger than your backup archive (Doh!)
Cheers dude!
