Which SE Searches For Punctuation?

    google doesnt allow for search strings having punctuation characters so is there a search engine that would allow it? something like: "@hotmail.com" ?

    if not is there a way around it?

    Because isn`t relevant, it ignores words like: and, or, then,etc., because affects the results:)

    LOL Lucky is basically trying to tell you that the "punctuation" is not relevant, along with other "stop words" such as :

    And
    Or

    there are other ones, but THEN is not a stop word - or at least from what I have seen.

    But there is not a search engine, that I have found - that matters, that pays attention to punctuation or common " stop words "

    My mistake...then is not a stopped word:)

    But i mean that punctuation signs aren`t relevant in search, so google and other search engines ignore them:)
