Hi Barry.

Thanks for this report.

As I'm reading the bug report, I think the future of ZimBashckup is in jeopardy, because somebody said zmmailbox should not use REST for backups, which is the main part of ZimBashckup process.

I'm keeping this under close view, and I will try to test the 8.7.0 dev version, to see how can I continue to perform backups.

Thank you very much.

Please note it is already broken in 8.x

Well yes, I just re-read the whole bug report, and it's sad but true.

For now, the commands will succeed but the backups might be not consistent, so we can say the process is broken.

I will try to search for another way to perform backups, but it seems to be a first nail in the coffin for ZimBashckup.

Thanks.
