Hi,

On a Thunderbird 38.3 / Debian stretch with multiple accounts, When doing a global search on a text string or email address, Thunderbird do not lists corresponding messages in Trash boxes. This is not convenient. Sometimes I need global search to look in absolutely all folders, whatever the time it would cost. Is there a way to do that ?

Thanks,

Trash Properties, General, 'Include messages in this folder in Global Search results'.

After changing the Properties, it may be necessary to rebuild the search database:
