Somehow, I must have deleted the trash folder on my main email account. I DO now have a trash folder in the 'local folders', but I want it back on the email account, how do I do that?

You can manually create a new folder and call it "Trash" but it won't quite behave like a normal Trash folder.

However, there is an addon called Folder Flags which adds a new tab to the folders properties page and this lets you set it as a Trash folder, restoring the usual properties.
