Beyond the safety precaution you mentioned, rsync doesn't delete files at all unless your RsyncArgs include "--delete".  There have been a few previous people mailing the list who didn't have --delete in there, so I wonder whether that might be the problem here.

If you check the full log of that backup, does it shows any error or anything suspicious? I had that kind of things happen sporadically when there is a reading error on the client side, and rsync disables deletions for safety. "Reading error" in my case was usually just a symlink for which the linked file was missing.

Best regards,
