Backup4all received a major update, to version 4.9, which implements a notable feature touching on email notifications.

This revision expands the supported encryption types when it comes to sending emails, by adding TLS (Transport Layer Security) protocol.

Also new are environment variables in email notifications that occur with the backup procedure, mainly in the title and body of the message. A list of the environmental variables you can use is available here.

The developer repaired a couple of glitches in Backup4all 4.9. One of them refers to the warning about missing PNG file; the other addresses an error that occurred when trying to restore the application’s configurations on 32-bit systems and consisted in warning the user about a missing file, but no name would be provided.

Backup4all is available for download on this page; a portable version of the program is also available here.
