Thanks, I tried that too but I think it works if it is only a proper
filesystem.

Actually, the following host.pl did the job for me. I had to add an
"--include" parameter to rsync.
=========
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [
  '/home/remi'
];
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
  '/home/remi' => [
    '.*'
  ]
};
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = {};
$Conf{RsyncArgs} = [
  '--numeric-ids',
  '--perms',
  '--owner',
  '--group',
  '-D',
  '--links',
  '--hard-links',
  '--times',
  '--block-size=2048',
  '--recursive',
  '--include .thunderbird'
];
=========

Thanks
Rémi.
