Problem with order of select items when using conditional e-mail recipients

Okay, this problem is a little difficult to describe, but basically, I am finding that when I enter a number of select items to use as conditional e-mail recipients, e.g.

asdf@fsu.edu,asdf@fsu.edu|Accounting
asdf@fsu.edu|American Studies
asdf@fsu.edu|Anthropology
asdf@fsu.edu,sclaytonemmerson@fsu.edu|Art
asdf@fsu.edu,asdf@fsu.edu|Art Education
sdf@fsu.edu,asdf@fsu.edu|Art History 
asdf@fsu.edu,asdf@fsu.edu|Biological Sciences
asdf@eng.fsu.edu|Chemical and Biomedical Engineering
asdf@fsu.edu,gharmon@fsu.edu|Chemistry and Biochemistry
asdf@eng.fsu.edu|Civil and Environmental Engineering

etc.

I end up getting MOST listed in the webform in the order that I put them in (alphabetical), but a few of these show up not in order.

For example, in the list above, when the user goes to fill out the form, they might see:

Chemistry and Biochemistry
Accounting
American Studies
Anthropology
Art
Art Education
Art History
Biological Sciences
Chemical and Biomedical Engineering
Civil and Environmental Engineering

Basically, one or several of the items will appear in a different place in the list in which they should appear.

What is going on here?

Am I using too many items in my select list?
Should I not use multiple e-mails per line? (already tried making just one e-mail per line - didn't work)

I also tried removing all punctuation, etc. - still nothing.

Please help - I am stumped.
