In our system we "fixed" it by setting our imp/prefs.local.php with the 
settings below.

// move deleted messages to a trash mailbox instead of just marking
// them as deleted
$_prefs['use_trash']['value'] = 1;

// display the 'Empty Trash' link in the menubar
$_prefs['empty_trash_menu']['value'] = 1;

You will also want to set up your configuration to automatically create 
a "Trash" folder for new users and then empty it by default perhaps 
every 30 days.  I forget where you can find those settings.

Moving deleted email to a Trash folder also has another beneficial 
effect in addition to keeping your inbox clear of deleted email.

It makes it easier to manage disk/mail quotas.  With our old system that 
would hide the deleted email (but they are still there taking up space) 
we would have people that had maxed out their disk/mail quota with 7 
emails showing in their inbox.  They had forgotten that they still had 
thousands of deleted, hidden emails that had not been purged.

Hope this helps.
