The reason for this seems to be that the pattern is treated as a
hyphenated word:
regression=# select TO_TSQUERY('english', 'e-goog:*');
to_tsquery
-------------------------------
'e-goog':* & 'e':* & 'goog':*
(1 row)
but the hostname isn't:
regression=# select TO_TSVECTOR('english', 'See e-google.com');
to_tsvector
--------------------------
'e-google.com':2 'see':1
(1 row)
If you change the text so it's not recognized as a hostname, you get
lexemes that would match the query:
regression=# select TO_TSVECTOR('english', 'See e-google com');
to_tsvector
---------------------------------------------
'com':5 'e':3 'e-googl':2 'googl':4 'see':1
(1 row)
Possibly we could fix this by hacking the ts parser so that it would
also apply the hyphenated-word rules to a hostname containing a dash.
In general though, there are always going to be cases where prefix
match doesn't work because of dictionary transformations ...
