Howdy -- in Backup and Restore -> Backup Virtual Servers, you can see a list of all the options to backup in the Features and Settings screen.
It sounds like you may be interested in the "Mail/FTP users and mail aliases " option.
However, it's not possible to just backup their mailbox -- to have home directory data included in the backup (such as email), you'd also need to enable the "Server's home directory and web pages" option.
You could always manually copy the /home/OWNER/homes/ directory over though, as that would copy over all the email.
It looks like you're using Virtualmin GPL there though... if you're using Virtualmin GPL, and you had any followup questions, you'd actually want to ask those in the Forums, which you can access using the "Forums" link above. We monitor the Forums, along with lots of wonderful folks in the community. Thanks!

We're happy to help with your additional questions, but if you're using Virtualmin GPL the best place to do that is in the Forums.
Feel free to post your questions there in the Forums, and between us and the Virtualmin community, we should be able to help out. Thanks!
