    my hosting is gonna stop and I have to backup everything, I've don the full backup in my cpanel, but are all settings for mail, addon domains and such things saved now also? so if I get an other host, and I put it in my cpanel there, I have everything back?

    That's how it should work, but it's better to be safe than sorry. Restore your backup on the new server and verify that everything is there and working before taking down the original account.

    Default Backup

    I would be very careful doing a backup, especially if it is the home directory backup..
    What I would suggest is: Make a home directory backup, and then try to do a restore. Apparently cpanel has problems restoring home directory backups, do this first and test before you back everythin up and find out you can't restore properly.
