You can have a total of 50 notes in the system at one time, including the notes in Trash. This means you'll want to empty your Trash periodically, or you'll be left with no space for new notes. Once a note is in the Trash, you can delete it (completely remove it from the system) or retrieve it (move it back into your list of notes).

1. To open your Trash, click Trash in the Notes sidebar. All discarded notes are displayed on the right side of the page in alphabetical order.
2. To remove the notes from your system completely, click the Empty Trash button. You'll be asked to confirm your action since the messages will be permanently discarded. Click Empty Trash to proceed, or click Cancel to return to the Trash.
3. To retrieve a note, check the box on the left side of the note, then click Retrieve Checked at the bottom of the page. The note will be removed from the list of notes in Trash; a message at the top of the page confirms the retrieval. The modification date and time are not updated since the note itself has not been modified.
