Trash is a vFolder, meaning that the Trash folder is not a physical
folder. The messages you see in the Trash folder are actually inside
other folders (whatever folder you deleted them from). Because of
that, you can't selectively expunge and the messages are already
marked as Deleted, which is why they show up in Trash in the first
place.
