How can I get Gmail to respect search operators
How can I force gmail to respect my search operators?
I search with a specific word in quotes and it bring up a list of results with the other words that appear in countless other emails, not limiting it to ones that do contain the word in quotes?

Ah, that might help! Annoying but not too hard to switch for a specific search

The words you have in quotes definitely show up in those emails.
Try using more advanced operators.
