[flexbackup-help] rsync mode and Maildir/s

[peter g. <pc...@ag...>]

I'm running flexbackup in rsync mode, and when backing up qmail's Maildir/s
(basically, one file per email message) I can get errors. The problem is
that users download emails during the backup process, so when rsync goes to
grab them, they have "disappeared". The rsync error is, e.g.,

  send_files failed to open //home/wjtl/users/jeremy/new/1064220493.9326.beta.itickets.com: No such file or directory

We *need* to backup email directories, so excluding them isn't an option. We
cannot really afford to shut off POP3/IMAP services while backups run
either. So I'm thinking we want flexbackup to ignore these (non-fatal!)
errors.

Any ideas how we can do this? TIA,
