Please file this bug upstream since it seems to be thunderbird's bug not
Ubuntu's bug.
Please also upgrade to latest 2.0.0.19 release from our archives for
Linux and from Mozilla for windows. Please dont bring up what works or
doesnt work in Windows since the code is not even close to the same.

Please answer the following:
1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter
the problem,
2. the behavior you expected, and
3. the behaviour you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).

Are you talking about thunderbirds trash folder? Mine works fine in
Intrepid and Jaunty thunderbird 2.0.0.19 and 3.0.
Please try to use a new profile, rename ~/.mozilla-thunderbird and restart.

 status incomplete
