I'm trying to get the posts from a specific category, where the title contains a specific word. As long as I leave the 'post__in' out of the query I get results. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

As long as I leave the 'post__in' out of the query I get results
sounds ok - what results?
and are these the results you are looking for?
general:

'post__in' properly used is to get posts with certain IDs;

sorry, pasted too long code.
Here's the code in the right way:

@alchymyth: query selects posts in certain categories, using 'category__and'.
The right posts are selected.
By using 'post__in' I try to narrow down the selection of posts to only posts containing a certain word (eg. "verander") in the title.
When I add this, I get no results at all.
Did you make sure your $wpdb query is returning the proper stuffs? Try a var_dump on $mypostids just to make sure. It might also be useful to do the same with $args just to make sure everything is happy.

Finally got it working.
The searches I tried only came up with posts that didn't belong to selected categories.
Here's the working code:

The script uses three query_vars;
pub_search, pub_categorie and pub_author
that are setup in the functions.php
It searches the title and content of the posts belonging to the categories stored in pub_categorie and pub_author
