Does on-demand scans avoid scanning exclusions ?

This issue has been solved. See solution.
I'm pretty sure it does, but I couldn't found any document entry about it.
I'm concern about Exchange servers, I know there are built-in exceptions to avoid SEP11 realtime scanning it's database, but what about user-created scans ? or scheduled scans ?
Will it avoid scanning centralized exceptions ?

Yes it will, exceptions is for all scans.
For all scanning scanning
For all scanning scanning exclusions are same
You can also the administration guide page no 389
From administration guide
Configuring the options that apply to antivirus and
antispyware scans
Some scanning options are common to all antivirus and antispyware scans.
Antivirus and antispyware scans include both Auto-Protect and
administrator-defined scans.
The policy includes the following options:
■ Configure scans of selected file extensions or folders
■ Configure centralized exceptions for security risks
■ Configure actions for known virus and security risk detections

Yes
When you create a Centralized Exceptions Policy, the exceptions apply to all scans of that type on the client computer that uses the policy. You can include all of the exceptions in the same policy
.
Excluded folders are excluded from Autoprotect Scans too.. In simple symantec not gonna do anything you have excluded.
For more info check admin page 100.
