I have five email accounts on Thunderbird and would like to have a single 'deleted' folder for all five under Local Folders, not five individual 'deleted' folders. How do I do this? The account settings offer me only the options of sending deleted messages into folders within each separate account, whereas sent messages and junk messages can be sent to folders under Local Folders

You are correct. For imap accounts there is not a choice to pick a folder outside of the account.
