[Techtalk] Gmail as backup?

[Michelle Murrain]

Hi,

Does anyone know of any scripts (perl would be fab) that can back up  
local files (like, say, rsync) to your gmail account? I just found a  
neat tool, called gDisk which allows you to copy files to your gmail  
account, and it seemed it would be neat to come up with something  
commandlineish that one could use to automate remote backups of  
particular files and such.

I checked freshmeat, and didn't find anything like this.

If not, I might have to write one, which could be fun.

Thanks.

Michelle
