Will clicking "proceed" on the new compact folders message empty my trash?

Hello!

Recently the compact folders message I always used to get on Thunderbird has changed. I always compacted my folders routinely in the past.

However, this new message says that if I "proceed" that all my deleted messages will be purged.

Does this mean that my trash folders will be purged? I rely on my trash folders hugely--I need to refer back to them at least weekly for some reason or other--and accessing "unexpectedly needed after all" e-mails are crucial to my business.

I want to be absolutely sure that my trash folders will not be purged (they never were before--but the message was different then) if I click "proceed"

Thank you. Kara
