I found that my mail client reported invalid messages in the
just-downloaded rsync.mbox.
Further examination showed that they are due to instances of
unprefixed words "From" at beginning of line in the message body.
Once I fixed them, all messages are visible.
It looks like the rsync.mbox file may have been prepared by simple
concatenation of messages, without the filtering of initial From
lines.
Here is a diff suitable for patch:
diff -c rsync.mbox.bad rsync.mbox

My mistake. I never use the patterns in my application, so i forgot one
of the gotchas in the doc.
! From rsync.1:
If you end an exclude list with --exclude '*', note that
since the algorithm is applied recursively that unless you
explicitly include parent directories of files you want to
