[Evolution] the "Trash" folder

[Jon Nall <nall pa dec com>]

hello.
i'm a little sketchy on the use of the "Trash" folder. to remove
messages, i currently delete/expunge (ctrl-D/ctrl-X). this deletes the
messages entirely. is there a way to delete them so they go into the
"Trash" folder? if not, it seems the only way something would get there
is to either filter it there, or manually move it (which makes it seem
no different than a regular folder, which makes me say, "why the 'empty
trash' option in the Actions menu"?). 

am i missing something basic? 

thanks.
nall.
