You forgot to also sync MySQL vpopmail database, which cannot be done as a simple rsync. Consider using database replication feature of MySQL, or care about setting up dump-rsync-restore script for this task.
If you do not have binary logging turned on, rsync will work just fine.

Hmm... Tell me please, how does binlogs, written to entirely different files than DB ones will disturb you?

Also, what are you going to rsync? MySQLs data dir? Ok, that will do in case you store tables in MyISAM tablespace, but will not work in case of InnoDB. Also, rsyncing MyISAMi tables 'on the fly' in not officially supported method by MySQL.Net, and thus it might lead to unpredictable consequences like loosing part of users, corrupted tables on slave server, etc. I think that it's wiser to use officially supported methods of MySQL database replications instead of simple rsync.
