*"Houston, we have a problem": either your statement is incorrect or the
Manual**:
(see _bold underlined_ enhancements)
*
http://doc.owncloud.org/server/5.0/ownCloudUserManual.pdf#Page=14 says:

"3.5.1 What gets encrypted

The current version encrypts all your files stored in ownCloud.
*At the moment we don’t encrypt:**
**• _old versions (versions created before the encryption app was enabled)_*
• old files in the trash bin (files which were deleted before the
encryption app was enabled)
• image thumbnails from the gallery app
• search index from the full text search app
All this data is stored directly on your ownCloud server, so you don’t
have to worry to expose your data to a third party
storage provider."
