I don't believe you can use Windows variables in exclude patterns at the moment. This would make a good request for enhancement. I would recommend submitting an RFE through PowerLink.
In the meantime, the following exclude pattern should do what you need:
**/AppData/Local/EMC

You cannot use the windows variables in the exclusion list, You can use that exclusion as
"C:\Documents and Settings\*\appdata\local\emc" For Windows XP
"C:\Users\*\appdata\local\emc" For Windows Vista / Windows 7

i ended up using:
**/EMC/mailbox
to exclude the directory on the client machines. tested and works properly.
