Moved to Email as this has nothing to do with the Guidelines.

Comcast's mail servers only deliver incoming mail to the Inbox or Spam folders, so new mail would only appear in the Trash folder if:

  • An email filter at (gear icon) / Email Settings / Mail / Filter Rules was set to "Discard" or "Move to folder Trash", or
  • A third party email program or app using IMAP contained a similar rule, or
  • The mail was put there manually

Hello user_3vrip6 , as our Forums expert @BruceW mentioned the emails will never default to the trash. They will only go to the inbox or spam unless you have specific filters set up or delete them manually.
