I'd go with incremental backups in that scenario.  Daily backup size
is gonna be a tiny fraction of the whole mail archive.

Repeatedly sending stuff that has not changed (as most of your mail in
current backup were in the previous too) is plain waste of resources.
No matter if the zip is a gig or five.
