Inaccurate Matching in Email Strings

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hey guys, here is my query:
{
"query": {
"bool": {
"minimum_should_match": 1,
"must": [],
"must_not": [],
"should": [
{
"query_string": {
"fields": [
"emailAddress"
],
"query": "test@abc.com"
}
}
]
}
},
"from": 0,
"size": 25
}

whenever I run this, I would also get back results that have emails that
dont match test@abc.com, such as hi@abc.com

If i switch the field to names, the searches will come back exact.

Is there a special meaning to the @ sign that's doing this?

Thx

Hey,

check out the uax_email_url tokenizer, which will help you here
