Nancy,<div><br></div><div>Yah, I'd only use email if I knew the file was going to be < 25MB or whatever the gmail limit is at the time. But using the backup_migrate profile functionality and selecting to compress with tar and by selecting to not back up search, cache, access, and watchdog tables, you can still have pretty sophisticated sites coming in at < 25MB.</div>

Remember that backing up the database to the same box that your Drupal install is on has some beneficial use-cases but <i>it does nothing</i> for a disaster scenario where your drive crashes or you no longer have access to the box for some reason.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Backup Migrate now comes with email, FTP and S3 options which are awesome. They all have some security issues though. </div><div><br></div><div>I've played around a lot this week with Amazon S3 and had success using backup_migrate to write backup files to S3 buckets. I've wrapped my mind around the permissions functionalities at S3 enough to significantly mitigate the security concerns that come with backup_migrate. I'm very excited about it and I'm hoping to write a doc page about it this weekend.</div>
