Sorry for the html - I forget thunderbird is set to do that by default.  
I am not using cygwin, so the windows shares are mounted via cifs on an 
embedded linux appliance at the remote end.  The path to the mounted 
shares on the remote end is "/mnt/lpl/"  I have actually been careful to 
match case when entering the exclusion.  Here's a snip from the log and 
my config file so you can see what I'm talking about:

Remote[1]: rsync: readdir("/mnt/lpl/System Volume Information"): Permission 
denied (13)

$Conf{ClientNameAlias} = '10.2.10.18';
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [
  '/mnt/lpl'
];
$Conf{RsyncdAuthRequired} = '0';
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync';
$Conf{DumpPostUserCmd} = '/var/lib/backuppc/report.sh $xferOK $client 
$moreUsers';
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
  'system files' => [
    '*.ALF',
    '*.ADF',
    '/mnt/lpl/System Volume Information'
  ]
};
