    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.
