Isn't this copying the wrong way? i.e. don't you want to send files TO
the mailbackup server?
In any respect, this is a case where include/exclude is overkill. Just
do something like this:
cd /home; rsync -avR */Maildir server::mailbackup
or, if you really wanted to pull, this:
rsync -avR 'server::mailbackup/*/Maildir' /home
