To get information about the backup process, the log file can be created:
Log file is a document containing details about the backup file and its creation process. It is saved with the same name template as the backup file itself, except it has the file type of text file (txt). Log file includes header information like source folders, file rules, and also errors if some occurred during the backup process. Errors are also reported if the program was unable to include some file (for example if it was deleted or you have set to exclude open files and the file is open at the time backup was created). Log files also have footer information like destination path of backup, files compressed and the final backup size.
Since the version 3.1 it is possible to log each file added to the backup. For this, activate th option "Include file names backed up". In this way you can see exactly what files were added and search for a particular file from inside the log file to see if it is in that particular file or not. It's useful specially for incremental backups when you do not know exactly which backup contained the file you are looking for.
In the Professional version, log files can also be e-mailed automatically after they are created. Additionally, you can send the email only in cases some errors were found during the backup, and include the backup file itself as an attachment. Please note that large attachments are in most cases rejected by mail servers.
If you need, you can send the email to multiple addresses, by entering the addresses and separating them by comma.
If you are using any emailing options, please make sure the mail server information is set up in the Program Options, Email panel. You need to specify your outgoing e-mail server (host) at least. in general you have to use the same server and account information you are using with your email program. If this information is unset, it is not possible to send out emails.
