I don't know the actual answer to this. But taking a guess, Vista searches
are conducted through a search index, like Google and other search engines
use. In order to keep the search index lean, items in Deleted Items and Junk
E-mail folders are probably considered "trash" and therefore not worth
putting in the index. If you take any items you don't intend to delete out
of Delete Items and put them in some other folder of items that you do
intend to keep, they should show up in your searches.
