When I delete an email it doesn't show up in the trash. Where is it?

I operate an iMac and Powerbook. When I delete an email I expect it to show up in the trash file. It doesn't. Where does it go? How do I get it back? What do I need to do to get it to show up in the trash bin?


MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.5
