To to keep unnecessary files from being backed up, you should configure your backup software to
exclude the following file types from the backup:
Agent log files (for example, ????mta.??? to exclude files such as 0518mta.001 and
????poa.??? to exclude files such as 0518poa.001)
QuickFinder
indexes and incremental files (*.idx and *.inc)
TM
Timing files used by the Internet Agent (proc and pulse.tmp)

ignored)
