I don't recall ever creating/using any common folders and frankly I'm not even
sure what a common folder is.

Since you had me poking around preferences I noticed that deletions under
"Normal Deletions" was set to "Move messages to trash folder" which I would have
thought meant the trash folder for that account. Since it didn't seem to work
that way as evidenced by what happened this morning, I instead selected "Move to
the specified folder" and then selected that account's trash folder. I have now
done that for both accounts.

If no further messages get routed to that orphan trash folder at the bottom of
the tree, I'll eventually delete it.

Thanks for the help Miguel.
