I with Bret on this. Especially since, using the Trash name means that I 
can't get to the real IMAP folder called Trash that all my other mail 
readers use.

Having the vFolder would be fine if Evo was all I use. Many of us use 
more than just evo to access mail.
I use Evo on Linux, Mozilla on windows, mutt when remote and so on.
