 This script automates backing up your Mailcow installation using borgbackup and a remote ssh-capable storage system.  I suggest using rsync.net since they
 have great speeds and a special pricing structure for borgbackup/attic users ([details here](https://www.rsync.net/products/attic.html)).

 - Runs 'borg prune' to make sure you are trimming old backups on your schedule

 Clone this repo or download a release file into a directory of your choosing. For all examples in this document, I will assume you will run the script from */scripts/backup*. Make sure the script file is executable and you protect the *.details* file since it contains things like your repo password:

+## restoring backups
+
+Starting with version 3.0, a *restore.sh* file has been included to semi-automate restoring your backups to a clean mailcow instance. There are a few steps required and they are better explained in the wiki than would be possible in a short write-up like this. Please check out the [restore process overview](https://git.asifbacchus.app/asif/MailcowBackup/wiki/8.0-Restore-overview) for more information.

 ## final notes
 
 I think that's everything. For detailed information, please review the [wiki](https://git.asifbacchus.app/asif/MailcowBackup/wiki/_pages). If I've forgotten to document something there, please let me know. I know the wiki is long but, I hate how much stuff for Linux and open-source programs/scripts in general are so poorly documented especially for newbies and I didn't want to make that same mistake.
