Hi ,

I am using the free text search with \_all on email for eg

[\_all:narendra.choudhary@gmail.com](mailto:_all:narendra.choudhary@gmail.com)

but it is making the parts into the narendra.choudhary and  
gmail.combacause of special character ..

My mapping for the analyser is "analyzer": {  
"auto\_complete": {  
"type": "custom",  
"tokenizer": "whitespace",  
"tokenizer": "uax\_url\_email",  
"filter": [  
"stop",  
"standard",  
"custom\_ngram"  
]  
}  
}

but it is not working ...

Could any one tell me how to make it correctly.

You need to define your analyzer as default analyzer. Here is an example:
