That's interesting. It looks like rsync is complaining because you have a work directory in your MailtoMutt folder. However, doing a selfupdate should blow away the work directory.

Try doing a `sudo port clean MailtoMutt` and selfupdating again. See if that fixes it.

I thought I'd check again. Does anyone know what this problem is, or how to avoid it?

Do you know what that means or how to make it stop failing?
