The IMAP model is mark-and-expunge, and the Trash folder is a confusing
waste of space and an abuse of the IMAP server's namespace.

        I don't really like how "Junk" and "Trash" in Evo are simply 
        VFolders that show me emails "marked" as deleted or junk.  If I
        use squirrelmail to check my email from somewhere else,  I then
        don't have a "Trash" folder to keep deleted emails, and likewise
        for "Junk".

My patch gives him the option to turn that off and simply use the IMAP
mark-and-expunge model. It does not implement a physical Trash folder,
but at least it stops _pretending_ to do so.
