Evolution has virtual Trash folder.
ISP server uses virtual Trash folder.

A real trash folder was set up for my other devices (iphone, tablet), 
since they cannot use the virtual one.

Email on the iphone and blackberry tablet generally work better than the 
Evolution on my desktop. They sometimes cannot connect to the server 
(randomly request login information redo's).

Today the desktop Evolution will not download the Inbox or other 
folders, whereas Thunderbird, my tablet and iPhone did. This email is 
coming to you via Thunderbird. Maybe my local Evolution setup under my 
existing computer account is corrupt (as well?). Am awaiting response 
from the ISP on my request to have them repair my account on their 
server. The server account (through Webmail) has recognized that this 
draft is being written.

Thank you for taking time to walk me through options to recovery.
