Deleted emails keep reappearing

When I delete emails on Mail, the deleted emails keep reappearing. I had this problem before and it seemed to be fixed but it's started again. Anyone have any suggestions other than deleting Mail and re-installing it? Or is this the only solution?

First...


Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode?


Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.


Then...

Mail>Preferences>Accounts>YourAccount>Mailbox Behaviors, what path is Trash Mailbox set to?

Are you using any Mail Rules?
