The email specific queries don't appear to work. The "@" is ignored by google so you just get results for the domain string.

The first two appear to still work, but the third does not.

The permutation searches are tricky because you don't know if a lack of results means the email does not exist, or just hasn't been posted anywhere indexed

Will update and credit
