To see my preferences as a new user would, I removed everything for my
user in horde_prefs table.  Now when deleting a message, I don't see
an IMAP error.  But I don't see a Virtual Trash either.  I see a
Virtual Inbox under Virtual Folders, but I cannot drag messages there.
 Virtual Inbox seems to open, but is empty.  Although the message
disappears from the message list for a moment, it reappears again
later with a strike-out line through the deleted messages.  By
reverting to regular trash I can delete as before.
