The exclusion pattern is relative to the src/dest locations.
--exclude='/usr/lib/sympa/spool/arc/*' (Need the quotes to
protect the * if on the command line) would only match the files
/usr/lib/sympa/spool/usr/lib/sympa/spool/arc/* which isn't
what you want.
try this instead
rsync -avzP -e ssh --delete --exclude=/arc/ /usr/lib/sympa/spool \
