When I save a search, it is saved with a Boolean + sign in every space

There is a big difference between search string:      hrp chest protector

Also, I quit getting search result e-mails about a month ago.

There are links to a few more threads on ebay.com.  I think there are about five or six there now.  A ticket has been raised, but the tech will add you to the ticket if you post over there.
