Searching within the Trash doesn't seem to be working. The "Search Explanation" updates correctly, but the notes don't filter (i.e. Every note in the trash is included in the result)

I am using the latest beta/prerelease version.

I have been wondering as well, about this behaviour. I deleted the wrong note by accident, and now it is lost in the swamp of hundreds of notes in the trash bin and no way to search for it.

Confirmed with latest beta. Not sure if this is by design, i.e. exclude trashed notes from general search results.

Just go to the trash & sort by updated date to find a recently deleted note.

I did try that earlier, but no luck. "Updated" is not affected by the delete. BUT when I had a second look a bit later, I noticed the "by Deleted" option. That worked fine to get hold of recent stuff. But thanks for the tip anyway :)

Yes, the updated date gets changed to the date the note was deleted. I just confirmed this. AFAIK, there is no "deleted on" date. This is the Windows client section . Are you talking about another client?

Deleted Date appears to be a client specific attribute. I just checked my Trash and only some of my notes in Trash have Deleted Date attribute set.
Testing...

Quite interesting; I believe it's working as designed; just tried in Lotus Notes and search within trash folder also doesn't work. Only option is to sort by deleted date.

Tested Delete on Windows and Web clients.
The Windows client set Updated and Deleted dates.
The Web client does neither.

Definite inconsistent implementation.

Ok, I had the deleted date unchecked on the display (list view.) (Duh...) Yes, there is a deleted date. Evernoted.
