We have configured a completion suggester filed as:

```
 .Completion(c => c.Analyzer("standard")
                        .PreserveSeparators(true)
                        .MaxInputLength(100)
                        .Name("addressSuggestions")
                    )

```

However when a phrase such as C.N.N. is being indexed, you cannot query by just using a prefix of cnn (i.e. not entering the dots.). We thought the Standard Analyzer removes the punctuation!

Would appreciate any assistance
