Post title: Change the alignment penalty
You can set a higher penalty for alignments (by default it's 1).
Go to Project settings>Language Pairs>All Language Pairs>Translation Memory ...>Penalties and change the Alignment penalty to 5 or 10.
Segments from alignments will now show up as a 95% or 90% match in the look-up window.
HTH,
Emma
Edited to add:
You could also exclude them completely by setting up a hard filter (the option below the path described above) to exclude segments with "align" in one of the fields. That way they won't be shown in search results at all.
