need to select the specific folder where the email is stored using the
Command Center’s select additional folders feature (see “Select Folders
for Backup” below)
Desktop The Desktop folder stores all files, folders and icons found
on the desktop (which is actually the c:\Documents and Settings\<user
name>\Desktop directory).
CUSTOMIZE THE BACKUP SCHEDULE
There are three changes you can make to the backup schedule:
Time and frequency You can change the time of day the backups
take place and the number of times each week the backups are
performed. You can set different schedules for different PCs, so that
some are backed up at different times and more frequently than others.
Folders You do not have to back up all the common folders. You can
remove any or all of them from the backups. You can also back up other
folders in addition to the common folders. You can back up a different
selection of folders on each PC.
Turn scheduled backups off If you unselect all the common folders
and select no additional folders for a PC, that PC will not be backed up
automatically. This is not recommended.

HOW BACKUPS ARE STORED
The folders that you select for backup are copied onto the hard disk on
the Smart Home Server. The complete contents of each folder is copied,
so you have a backup of each subfolder and file in the folder.
VERSIONS
Backups are stored on the Smart Home Server by date. You can take a
look at the backups for any PC in your network, and you will see them
listed by date. Here is how the folders are stored:
