Searching with multiple NOTs does not work as expected

martin.polley says:
When I do this search:

list:Computer and status:incomplete and (NOT tag:nb_api NOT tag:wwp_stuff NOT tag:nice_to_have)

it only seems to take any notice of the first NOT. The search results still include stuff tagged wwp_stuff and nice_to_have...

Is this something that I am doing wrong?

TIA,

Try:
(NOT tag:nb_api) AND (NOT tag:wwp_stuff) AND (NOT tag:nice_to_have)

I believe that:

NOT (tag:nb_api OR tag:wwp_stuff OR tag:nice_to_have)

would also work.
