Smells like a "feature" yahoo offers for free... :-/

The option "leave messages on server" just don't delete messages. There
is _no_ way for POP3 to move messages to another folder. Actually, POP3
has no folders, besides the 'inbox'...


That said, all 'folders' yahoo offers you in the web-frontend, can only
exist in the frontend or an IMAP account. Try checking, if there are
options, to not use that 'Trash' folder on yahoo (frontend, not Evo) and
really delete mails.

I bet, you only can see this "feature" on the frontend...
