There is the possibility that they don't use a trash folder.  The
deleted mail staying in the same place that it was, to start off with,
simply flagged as deleted, and will actually be deleted on exit, or upon
a manual purge, or once a week, and probably hidden from view in the
meantime.  Look for a hide deleted messages type of option in the menus.

All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point
trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the
public lists.
