Since there is no trailing slash on '/home/user', the sender root is at '/home/', so the exclude pattern is correct in that case.
But the receiver path is '/home', so the root for building the exclude path is '/', and hence the exclude does not match on the receiver since it's not looking under /home.
I'd suggest appending a '/' to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home'.
Makes sense - I'll give that a shot as well.
