Backup / Restore Module missing features/bug and email request

Description

It appears that the delete after XXX is not even implemented in 2.10.0.27 of Backup/Restore. I couldn't find code anywhere that referenced deleting backup files. I am using a script now that handles keeping x number of copies. And, I realize it can be used in one of the "hooks" as well.

Also, if you backup to an FTP server, and the login/password is wrong, the backup reports "successful" backup, even though it never logged into the remote FTP server.

Feature request: Once the above are fixed, it might be nice to receive a report sent out via email when the backup is done. Of course, this would require 1 SQL field for email, one screen field for email, and a line of PHP code to call sendmail... :)

I try not to mess with what is there, as the updates will kill it. :)

Replying to gcoddington:

The code is implemented, has been implemented since day one, and works well.

Also, if you backup to an FTP server, and the login/password is wrong, the backup reports "successful" backup, even though it never logged into the remote FTP server.

The backup job is considered to have run successfully even if a specific server fails. You should see that server failure in the output.

Please open separate tickets for separate issues

The backup maintenance is not working for me either. I've uninstalled and reinstalled on two different machines. Neither "Delete after XXX runs" is working or "Delete after XXX days" does anything. (this includes the default backup). This seems to only effect local backups, backups to my ftp are working correctly. To troubleshoot I set the folder permissions to 777 and even tried a new local folder with no luck.
