The downside to not using --fuzzy, is that the entire article is
transferred again if a message names changes slightly (ie. if we're
talking maildir here), as a result of status change.

Note if you decide to use --fuzzy and want to delete articles, you
should chose --delete-after.  Otherwise rsync will delete the
candidates for fuzzy name matching, before having a chance to make use
of them.
