This seems like a pretty convoluted way to backup a database! If you are using WordPress, check out this official article on how to backup your WordPress database:

Also, check out the WordPress Backup Plugin:

I want to try this since I have experience posts being lost first hand without proper backups. My questions is – even if I start this instant beginning with my very next post … is it possible to go back to get my other blogs emailed to me or am I just SOL having to start with the now and not go backwards?
