I am using rsync to backup my home directory to a network drive using the 
following command:
rsync -Cav --delete --progress --exclude '*~' --exclude 
'.Trash*' /home/paul /mnt/network/home

I am getting errors on each mail from the Mail folder, I think rsync thinks 
that each message should be a directory and then fails to copy.
How can I get round this
Paul
