If the 'Trash' folder is in an imap mail account, then you need to be aware that the Server maybe auto emptying the Trash. eg: gmail auto empty every 30 days, yahoo empty every 7 days, spectrum auto empty every 3 days

when your Trash synchronises with server it will only display what is on server.
