2) If you don't have a trash folder defined messages are flagged as
deleted and the deleted style is applied to them.
    By default the deleted style will be "display: none" meaning they
will disappear and things will appear to have not changed

Just a quick comment...

If CSS 'display:none' is used to hide the deleted messages will things
like the display of how many messages are shown (eg. "Messages 1 to 30
of 300") be misleading?  Also, could it interfere with list
manipulation routines like "Select All" - possibly resulting in
messages being selected that you weren't expecting to be?

Possibly.  I'll look into that.  In the current system they are also set 
to display: none, but in a more direct way.  In the new system the row 
has a new class appended to the className.  In the old system the style 
was assigned display: none directly.  In the old system to detect if a 
message was hidden was trivial, just look at the style.  In the new 
system you have to look at the class to see what display is set to.  I 
know that that was never done elsewhere in the code, so it's possible 
that totals could be messed up.
