I seem to recall from the days preceding recorded history of my linux usage that libtrash had some problem with mutt. In any case, when you use libtrash you'll still have to empty the trash periodically, and then someone will empty trash containing a file they wanted and the thread topic will be "undoing a libtrash delete" rather than "Undoing a delete" :) It's really aliasing rm which is the most effective solution, coupled with backups.
