I have mail only in the inbox and linux folders. So it's enough if I
back up
those two directories, right?
Yes, that will do. In fact, a good test would be to copy them, rename them, and then try to load them as another folder. You can see what you get.
Do I have to backup the respective index files too?
I do. Don't know if it is required, but they aren't that big.
While we're at it, what's the second column in the above dir listing?
