Bug Description
If I search for a phrase in enclosed quotes such as "apple tree" it shows results with apple OR tree.
If I search for the domain of an email such as "lincoln.ac.uk" in enclosed quotes it brings back results which have "lincoln".
How can I restrict the search to phrases such as those above?
Thanks
Added: Tracker cannot search folders with apostrophies in their names (e.g. Mom's Files) it returns "Error parsing search command".

I see that the importance of this bug is Undecided. Let me tell you something, if I was a Windows user contemplating switching to Linux and would come up against this bug
it would be a deal breaker for me. Searching for exact phrase is a basic function of all search tools.
BTW I replaced this buggy search tool with Google desktop search.
