Search doesn't work well with email adresses

If I type emailname@gmail.com in the search box, it returns nothing in the popup even though there are tickets associated with that email. If I put emailname@gmail. (without the "com") it works, but as soon as I type the "c", the results vanish.

Thanks Vijay. It works now!

Hi Mario

This problem should be resolved by now.


We will also improve this Stop Words list and make search better

I don't believe those stopwords have anything to do with this... I just know that pasting an email address in a helpdesk software is crucial and this needs a solutions as soon as possible.

Hi Guys


Please check this List for the "Stop Keywords". Let us know of the words that need to be removed.

Hi, Vijay,

 

Mario is right. This problem exists. Even worse , we can only guess what are the words and the symbols , the so called "stop words" that we do not have to use in order for the search functionality to work properly. Can you provide a complete list of such symbols or words.

The problem is not .com is the ".c" or ".p"

If the email address domain is "live.com.pt", while typing this happens:

email@live - shows results

email@live. - shows results

email@live.c - NO RESULTS

email@live.co - shows results

email@live.com - shows results

email@live.com. - shows results

email@live.com.p - NO RESULTS

email@live.com.pt - NO RESULTS

This is a bad thing we cannot search by email...

Hi Mario


We did actually place some stop keywords like "is" , "was" , "the" and more but not sure whether .com is included in the keywords. I will check this and get back to you
