Hi wattazoum,

Thank you so much for looking into this issue and explaining how the
Sbackup works.

Well, I've slowly arrived to similar conclusion and yes, you're right
about our configuration was kind of clashing.

(Just inherited how it was setup and my aim is to improve it). With no
description/documentation it was a bit challenge to guess what would be
the real behaviour of the "Simple cut-off" option. Frustrated, I based
my understanding on the explicit name of the option even though I
understand it would leave us with those orphants. Also, I'd rather have
it working in more smarter and safer way, which seems it does....except
keeps disk full.

You're right, my expectation would put the whole backup in the risk,
OTOH I would know what to expect.

I'll try to come up with some wordings for the documentation and
tooltips, as the behaviour seems to be alright. So, hopefully everyone
could configure Sbackup in the right way.

Cheers,
-d
