How can I show trash folder messages in the conversation view for IMAP mail?
I'm using Thunderbird 52.0.1 and I have noticed that when I choose the conversation view for a message (either by menu - message/open in conversation, or right clicking on the message) that it does not show messages in the trash folder. When I look at the trash folder and highlight the message, the conversation view isn't shown as an option. If the message exists in another folder, or the inbox, the conversation view option is present, but it omits the trashed messages.

Works just like Gmail, if you trashed it, it is not part of the conversation anymore. Makes sense.
That's a good point, but it wasn't always that way. Was it an intentional change or did I have an addon that allowed me to see the trashed messages in the conversation.
I fail to understand why you'd trash a message you wanted to read. This seems to me to be a misuse of the trash folder. It's there to let you undelete an accidentally deleted message. It isn't a "miscellaneous" folder.
In this case, I was CC'd on the message. I read it, and didn't see anything I needed to do, so I deleted it. Afterwards, I needed to find that message and found that the conversation view didn't show it.
If an update to TB intentionally caused this behavior, then it is what it is. If not, I want to find out what I've done to cause it.
I don't use this Conversation view. I don't seem to need it; my messages link together automatically by themselves, using View|Folders|Threaded.
In this situation surely a workable solution is to un-Junk the relevant message. What happens if you file it with the ones you do keep?
