two things are really confusing me:

1.) The title claims that it is supposed to be an *rsync* xfer, the error
    message clearly indicates that *ftp* is attempted (and fails). Tim, could
    you please clarify which transfer method you are trying to use?

2.) The text mime part of Tim's message includes "ftp.pm" (with lower case f),
    the HTML mime part has it right (as quoted). Weird.

Isn't the same true for Archive::Zip and XML::RSS? I'm not sure those two
*can* be handled in a sane way, but I'll have a look in the next few days and
try to provide a patch.

Holger
