It sounds like there is a limit to the size of the list. Hopefully Marc_V or JohnCM_S will confirm.
But you could test it (tediously) by creating a new backup job, and re-entering the list from scratch.
Actually I did just that, I created a new backup job and found that there is exactly 87 entries allowed in the exclude list! If you add number 87 it is ignored. It is a strange number, but that is what I found. I would consider this solved, unless anyone has a workaround or comment.
Thanks
