Ok, I'm probably doing something stupid that's obvious to everyone else.  Perhaps someone can point it out to me?

I'm running Bacula v3.0.3a on WinXP and most things seem to be working fine.  I'm trying to specify some file extensions that are not to be zipped (e.g. ".gzip", ".jpg", etc.), but it seems to be zipping them anyway.  So I built a simple test case and I can't figure out how to get it to respect the exceptions.

My FileSet has three Options (which I use for all my jobs), followed by a file list (a large single text file in this sample case).  The first Options specifies particular files & directories to exclude - this seems to be working fine.  The second Options specifies file types not to compress (it contains no compression directive).  The third Options just lists the default options (including compression) to be used for all other files.

Here's the contents of my second Options resource, stripped back to just my test case.  It shows all the ways I've tried specifying the files to be selected by this option and thus not compressed.

Options {
    Check File Changes = Yes
    Hard Links = No
    Ignore Case = Yes
    Enhanced Wild = Yes
    MTime >     No ATime = Yes
    Signature = MD5
    Wild File = "c:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/Bacula/Work/*.noziptest"
    Wild      = "c:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/Bacula/Work/*.noziptest"
    Wild File = "c:/*/*/*/*/*/*.noziptest"
    Wild      = "c:/*/*/*/*/*/*.noziptest"
    Wild File = "c:/*/*.noziptest"
    Wild      = "c:/*/*.noziptest"
    Wild File = "c:/*.noziptest"
    Wild      = "c:/*.noziptest"
    Wild File = "*.noziptest"
    Wild      = "*.noziptest"
}

Even with this whole list of alternatives, none of them seem to be matching:
    File = "c:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/Bacula/Work/bacula.noziptest"
and it's getting backed up according to my default options which includes compression.

So, what might I be doing wrong here?
