I just tried to do the following advanced query condition: CC (does not contain c-i substring) <my address> and it seems that condition picks everything.
Target Milestone: --- → Bugzilla 2.16
just a wild guess but this might be akin to the problem with the query: bugs where "comment" "does not contain" "some string". This fails to give meaningful results (returns almost every report in the database) because the query is really returning bugs where any _one_ comment does not contain the string. Most bugs have enough comments that one of the comment will not contain the string. Perhaps the same thing is happening on cc: It might be returning all bugs where one of the cc:'d names does not contain the string. If this is the case then the does not contain is probably broken for any field which can have multiple values. (are there others besides comments and cc?) But maybe I'm delerious from lack of sleep and the two problems are unrelated.

This was originally worked on as bug #30823 but the CC changes were backed out.
We are currently trying to wrap up Bugzilla 2.16. We are now close enough to release time that anything that wasn't already ranked at P1 isn't going to make the cut. Thus this is being retargetted at 2.18. If you strongly disagree with this retargetting, please comment, however, be aware that we only have about 2 weeks left to review and test anything at this point, and we intend to devote this time to the remaining bugs that were designated as release blockers.
Target Milestone: Bugzilla 2.16 → Bugzilla 2.18
Yeah, this is the contains-vs-is issue which needs to be tidied up for 2.18.

These bugs appear to be abandoned. Retargeting to 2.20

This is another that should work now with the negation in boolean charts
