           Summary: rsync between local folder and mounted nfs folder
                    sometimes overwrites newer files
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.0.9
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned at samba.org
        ReportedBy: hipparchus2000 at gmail.com
         QAContact: rsync-qa at samba.org


Not sure of the core reason here but perhaps a network problem causes an
unhandled exception that allows rsync to think the older file should overwrite
the newer file.
My OS is Ubuntu 13.10
rsync 3.0.9 

command used is the same as in the man page.
rsync -avz src dest

Most of the time seemed to work fine, just occasionally not.
Unfortunately the "occasionally not" wiped a couple of days of email.
