Deletion of destination files

Hi to all rsync users.
rsync's `--delete' option works fine in the following example: I'm sending all
the content of /home/rodolfo from machine1 to /home/rodolfo in machine2:
$ rsync --dry-run -vrtul --delete --exclude='/.*' . 192.168.0.2:/home/rodolfo
, and --delete works perfectly. Instead, in this other example:
$ rsync --dry-run -vrt --delete --modify-window=1 file1 file2 file3
... /mnt/pendrive/rodolfo
I'm copying various files and directories from different places of my home
directory to a directory named `rodolfo' which is on the pendrive. I want that
all the files that are not listed among `file1 file2 file3 ...' in the above
command were deleted in the destination, but this does not happen. In rsync
`man' page I can't find a solution. Please, whoever can, any suggestion about
how to do what I want.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Rodolfo
