I need to export the data I stored in 1Password, but I encounter many problems:

Hi @Domenico
No problem with the language issues, and certainly I can understand you're likely frustrated with the problem you're trying to understand and overcome.
I've created likely over a million items, deleted them, exported, and converted several hundred thousand times - without exaggeration. I've done this over the past 10 years using version 4 through 8. So I have a fairly good understanding of the exports.
Here's a Dropbox link to a movie (2.9Mb) I created that demonstrates what I'm understanding you are describing:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/iy01zadqmfxftdg/deletion-video.mp4?dl=0
The following description explains what is occurring in the video:
- In 1Password 7 (7.9.8) a Login item titled "foobar" is shown in a vault, and it has a username "mailto:user@example.com".
- The Login item is Deleted, and this deletion is confirmed.
- The deleted Login item is shown to not be in Archive.
- Jumping to 1Password 8 (8.9.12 beta), the Recently Deleted section is selected in the sidebar. The "foobar" item with username "mailto:user@example.com" appears there.
- The account is exported to 1PUX, saved to the Desktop.
- I use my
1pux_tool.plto dump the contents of the 1PUX in an easy to read textual format, and send that content to thegreptool to look for the string "mailto:user@example.com". It does not appear in the text stream, so there is no output from that command sequence.
This confirms that the deleted item "foobar" with username "mailto:user@example.com" does not appear in the 1PUX.
I'm not doubting you are experiencing something that doesn't seem right to you. I just need an exact sequence of instructions to reproduce it to follow-up.
