Not quite sure. How is the field type defined? What is the result of adding &debug=true to the query? Have you looked at the actual terms indexed via the admin UI/schema browser? Have you looked at the admin/analysis page to see how the data is parsed by the fieldType?
If this is a tokenized field you should be fine with fq=content:"hello world", possibly with slop. And I'm all confused. The mail came through with what looks like regex expressions (slash period asterisk hello world period asterisk slash). But that's often an artifact of markup for bolding which gets stripped by some e-mail programs. You've been around long enough that I highly doubt you're trying to do regex queries!
