This post helps you how to set Thunderbird for your file backup in Giga-size email accounts; let’s say Gmail.

썬더보드에서 바로 이멜로 파일 백업하는 방법이다. 아래의 배치파일을 만들어 주기적으로 실행시키면 된다.

First, you need to compose a batch file label as “Autobackup.bat” as follows:

@echo off

FOR /F "tokens=1-4 delims=/ " %%i IN ('date /t') DO SET DATE=%%i-%%j-%%k

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" -compose to='YOUREMAIL@gmail.com',subject="File Backup %DATE%",body=".",attachment=file://D:/YourBackupFile.7z

Couple of variables is prepared beforehand. Change them as you like. For making the 7z file, I use another batch file which is similar to this example.

단, 당연한 이야기지만, 아래의 두개 변수는 개인 사용자에 맡게 바꾸어야 한다.

YOUREMAIL@gmail.com   (your email account for receiving backup files)
D:/YourBackupFile.7z    (your file to backup; do not forget the prefix, “file://”)

Now, you can assign this batch file, “Autobackup.bat”, in one of your favorite schedule program. Task scheduler in Windows could be an example software. I personally prefer to use other macro software such as “Macro Express 2000”. That is because you unfortunately have another step after executing the batch file; you have to push the [Ctrl] + [Enter] buttons to send the email. Strictly speaking, this batch file can only provide you half-automatic backup system.

The batch script will open Thunderbird which waits your final decision of "sending".


마지막 한가지, 아쉽게도 위의 스크립트를 실행시키면 위와 같이 최후의 결정을 기다리는 창이 나온다. 이때 "Send" 버튼을 수동으로 눌러줘야 한다. 그렇다!! 이 스크립트는 50% 만 자동인 백업 스크립트인 것이다.

Anybody knows how to push the button of “Send” on command line of Thunderbird?

누구라도 저 Send버튼을 자동으로 눌러주는 명령어를 아는 사람은 연락 주시 바랍니다.
