I'm using webmin's backup MYSQL database scheduler. It's the standard module that comes with webmin. It's detailed here: http://doxfer.webmin.com/Webmin/MySQLDatabaseServer

I have enabled the scheduled backups, which it gzips them and puts them in a directory of my choice.

It has a section for me to enter "commands to run after backup" I'd like to add something into this section such as uuencode {file} {file} | mail jason@me.com but the problem is i'm not sure how to get the file name of the backup to appear in my command, obviously {file} isn't correct as I just made that up

Does anyone know how I can get this thing to email me the backup?

Thanks
