It will appear in the mailbox listing of the traditional mode if you
are not using a Trash mailbox. If you *are* using a Trash mailbox,
then deleted flags are completely irrelevant so there is no need to
hide them (and, concurrently, no need to show a hide deleted messages
option).
This option does not currently exist in the dynamic mode. See Ticket #10256.
