This is where I have to inform you that you're wrong. Rsync is best
used for network backups.
My method of tar'ing and compressing can add just new files, I think
if you intend to use the mailing list, you really need to read
carefully.
I already said that you can do this exact thing with my method. If you
want to tinker, read up on tar and cron. You can easily have a backup
that only adds files and updates new ones. You can automate it as
well. There are more things you can do as well.
Main point here is, the frustrating thing about it is you haven't
spent the time to read what we've taken the time to write. It's very
rude and inconsiderate. I suggest you read each email twice or three
times, before even touching reply. It'll save us both tons of time.
