You need a backslash in front of the *, otherwise the shell will try
to expand it.  Alternatively, you can quote the string and skip the
backslash.

Either of the following work fine:

    yum --exclude "evolution*" update
    yum --exclude evolution\* update

No such luck, I copy/pasted straight from your email -

  Please tell me it's something I did wrong so we can all ridicule me together and laugh at my newbishness.  So very true about syntax.. usually I am so good about it... *sigh

  Thanks for looking into this, is there something else I can try?

They do, but you have errors in the commands you've tried.  Syntax
matters. :)
