dueAfter:"71 hours from now" Does not work as expected

So, given today is Thursday, I want a search term to return everything from Sunday onward; that is, anything due after 3 days from now. Unfortunately simply using dueAfter:"3 days from now" is not sufficient - it does not return items schedule on Sunday, that do not have due TIMES.

Again, assuming today is a Thursday, dueAfter:"71 hours from now" should return any item scheduled from Saturday at 11pm onward. Instead, it returns results for anything shelled from today at 11pm onward.

As a workaround for my immediate problem, I came up with a new set of search terms to achieve the same result, and this does work: due:"3 days from now" or dueAfter:"3 days from now"

This is actually a more accurate solution than what I first attempted, but regarless, dueAfter:"71 hours from now" should work and it doesn't.

I've added this to our list to investigate; thanks for letting us know.

In the meantime, dueAfter:"2 days from now" should suit your purposes.
