The “Default Mailbox ▸ Current Mailbox” item in the search menu is 
intended to be used to specify what you prefer by default. In general, 
any active search can be used to search any mailbox simply by choosing 
another mailbox. If the search begins in “All Messages” then you can 
still switch to “Junk” if you want to look in that mailbox. You can 
also ⌘-select “Junk” and “Deleted Messages” to make sure 
**all** messages are included in the search results.

There is no such setting. I'm not sure it makes much sense to have it as 
part of “All Messages” in general, but I guess there could be a 
setting to automatically select Junk and/or Deleted Messages when doing 
a search...

@Paul: It is possible to filter the “All Messages” mailbox to, e.g., 
only contain the messages from the last year, but this cannot be used to 
extend the set to Junk and/or Deleted Messages (`MmAllMessagesFilter`). 
I suspect this was the setting you had in mind. This setting has, by the 
way, been superseded by the fact that conditions can be added to the 
“All Messages” mailbox itself.
