My rsnapshot scripts are deleting the files they are supposed to backup. I've made no changes in my own conf files other than to add the version notation: config_version 1.2 After seeing errors that seemed to indicate it was no needed. Something has changed that is wreaking havoc with my backups. ~/Mail gets deleted (nearly all directories inside). And I see it was my rsnapshot mail conf file that did it.
