Trash Folder
For the third time now I have found messages I have saved in Local folders in TRASH. I did not put them there, and the original ones in Local Folders are empty. I have had to manually move messages intended to be saved from Trash into my intended folders. I am perplexed why this is happening, as I have not chosen Compact Folders or anything. Very, very annoying. If it continues I will search for another mail tool

I have no idea what you think compact is, but it has nothing to do with deleting mail or moving anything to a new folder, let alone Trash.
Did the copy in Local folders ever contain the email is was it always just a hollow pointer to an empty email.
You say local folders, but do you mean a folder the Local folders account or just a folder in Thunderbird say in an IMAP account..
the local folders were empty, and the folders in Trash contained the missing e-mails. There are no corresponding folders in the e-mail account that IMAP uses. I have NO idea why these emails and folders were transferred to trash but it has happened three times now, and it is a pain to move all back from trash to their original folders.
