What you see: cutting.
How it is stored: copying.
Does the inbox need to be compacted?
There answer to every "Does <fill in the blank> folder need to be
compacted?" is yes. :)
2)When you delete from the sent folder, you are cutting or copying?

Items in the sent folder were never in the inbox, so no; but the sent
folder would need to be compacted.
3)When you delete from the trash, you are cutting or copying?
Neither. (Where would you be copying/moving to?)
If you select a message in the trash and click delete, it gets removed
from view, but still exists in the actual trash file. You still need to
compact the folder.
If you use the 'empty trash' command, it will include an action to
compact the trash folder.
Now you guys know why auto-compacting was switched on by default. :)
