Now, why a corrupted Inbox would prevent writes to the Trash is beyond me...

I don't think it was preventing writes to the Trash -- it was probably
preventing writes to the *middle* of the Inbox itself. Appending to the
end (new mail) still worked, but deleting involves modifying existing
messages, to flag them as "deleted."

I see.

Well, in this case, Inbox should not have been involved. I have a system of filters set up so that hardly any incoming mail ends there; I read most of it in the various target folders and delete or reply from there. SM seemed to be performing that filtering operation normally, so I forgot that incoming mail even passed through the Inbox. All I knew was that I couldn't delete from the various target folders.
