Mac Mail Right Click Empty Trash Missing

On my Mac Book Pro, my Mac Mail no longer has the option to right click to empty trash. I have the option to right click and erase junk mail, but the right click empty trash is now missing.

unable to empty e-mail trash For the past month, I have been unable to empty my e-mail trash when I've logged onto my mac.com account. I previously had no problems in doing so, and wonder if this is the result of having upgraded to Mac OS Big Sur (11.5.2) about a month ago?

Mail is deleting my trash after 7 days but preferences say Never delete trash I have my preferences for Mac Mail set to delete Trash "Never." But Mail is deleting them after 7 days. I read this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6706070. It gives an answer written in 2014. I haven't been able to follow its directions though, I think, because my system (High Sierra) just doesn't have the same user interface as it did back then. Can anyone update the instructions to fix this problem?
