I think what he is trying to achieve is a backup of everthing minus
the exclude plus the specified include (which is within one of the
excludes).
I would take the approach of configuring two backups. One would start
at root (/) and exclude using the list from above. The second backup
would start

I need to back up a Zimbra mail server, but I can't get the whole
thing in any reasonable amount of time. I want to exclude the usual
stuff:
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = ['/proc', '/sys', '/mnt'];
But I also want to exclude all of /opt, except /opt/zimbra/backup.
Is this the right way to go
