I am trying to prevent certain folders that exist on host1 from transferring to host2.

 

Here are the folders on host1 I want to exclude:

[IMIP]

[Junk E-mail]

 

I am using the following command options:

--exclude '^"imip\. --exclude "'^"Junk E-mail\." --justfolders –dry

 

When I run the full command it shows: Excluding folders matching pattern ''imip\. --exclude '^Junk E-mail\.':

Yet it creates the folders:

Creating folder [IMIP] on host2

Creating folder [Junk E-mail] on host2

 

I think it is a syntax problem on my part. If I run with just --exclude '^"imip\. it works for that directory. But as soon as I add a second –exclude statement, it fails for both. It look like it is being interpreted as one line perhaps?

 

How do I exclude multiple folders?
