Importance of the bin mailbox under 'On My Mac' in Apple Mail?

Hi,


I am using Apple Mail to access my university emails.

However there seem to be two Bin mailboxes - one if them contains emails that I have actually deleted from my Inbox, but the other one, which is underneath a section called 'On My Mac', does not contain anything, so is it ok to delete this one?


Please see the attached picture.

Thank you.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.1

It is fine to delete it. If your Mac needs to use it at some point in time, it will re-create it.
