i'm resending this question, since i don't believe i saw a
response. is anyone else successfully using BackupFilesExclude
with the tar method?
(i'd simply add the "--exclude" args to the tarcmd itself, except
i see from the docs that there's trickery involved in escaping
wildcard characters.)

hi -- i recently realized that there are some pretty big files on
my system that change frequently, and which don't need to be
backed up -- mail index files, for example.

backuppc to skip by adding a "._nobackup_" suffix to its name.
