Check out unison, the best! :)

I've been using it to synchronize my remote Maildir directory
from 3 different remote locations (mail server co-located at
Inter.Net, office, and home).  With this utility, I can log in
anywhere, synchronize, and still maintain mailbox state of where
I was previously.

It works ala MS "My Briefcase".  Has lots of ports including
win32, and can use ssh as transport.
