OK, I tried this got the email with subject website backup but no attachment :(

I can't check the mail logs as it's a shared server (with 34sp.com)
unless there is a clever way I am unaware of.

I guess I need to divide up the file as per Steve Roome's solution, is
anyone able to whip that up into a cron job?
