I suddenly can't see any email messages I've deleted using the trashcan icon (delete) in my mail's Trash folder. It only works if I drag a message to the Trash folder. I have checked the box in "mailbox behaviors" to send discarded messages to Trash.

You can try quitting Mail.app Relaunch the app holding the Shift key down—compare you results.
For problem accounts the go to way to sort things out is to delete the account(s) from the Mail.app, then add it back.
Remove email accounts in Mail on Mac
Remove email accounts in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
Add email accounts in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
Add email accounts in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
Note—
IMAP accounts stay on the server, so no local loss, when you re-sync
POP accounts download and remove from the server—therefor save your inbox/sent box if you want them
“On My Mac" is just that, local folders you created and moved mail into. So no loss
