Comment(by caesarsgrunt):

 Thanks Jane and Andrew. I'm really pleased to finally see this feature get
 into trunk.

 I originally used the word to avoid the American-specific word Trash - but
 I agree that it ended up being confusing. But shouldn't we also change
 "delete" to "move top trash", to more accurately represent the action?

 Also, there are a couple of inconsistencies now... firstly, why can I edit
 Spam but not Trash? Would it be better to remove the edit links from the
 spam too?[[BR]]
 Secondly, Spam has an "Approve" link, while Trash has a "return to
 Pending" link. These should be consistent one way or the other - or
 perhaps both. Personally I'd go for "Not Spam" and "Undelete", both
 changing the status to Approved.
