Exclude Directory

For the life of me I can't figure out how to exclude a directory from a syncronization. My code works well otherwise.

# Automatically abort script on errors
option batch abort
# Disable overwrite confirmations that conflict with the previous
option confirm off
# Connect
open ftp://username:password@servername.webaddress.net
# Download file to the local directory X:\
synchronize local X:\
# Disconnect
close
exit

This syncs everything up perfectly, except I want to exclude a directory called "Annotations" from the remote ftp server.

option exclude "Annotations"

does not work in this case. I can't find any really good info around the winscp website on how to do this.

synchronize local -filemask="| Annotations/" X:\

That didn't work unfortunately :/.

Please attach a full log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP).
