Since it (like Trash) is a vFolder of things that are in IMAP folders,
then - yes, it would have the same contents on all machines you connect
from.  Assuming, of course, that they have "learned" the same rules.

No, it wouldn't affect Squirrelmail.  For that, you need something
server-side anyway.

[rant on vFolders deleted - partially ranting reply below]

Personally I LIKE the virtual trash - and the whole vFolder concept.
The first thing I do when using Squirrelmail or Mozilla, is to tell it
to NOT move/copy the email to a Trash folder when I mark it for
deletion.  The fact that IMAP keeps the deleted mail until I expunge
makes that a complete waste of resources as far as I'm concerned.  And I
can't tell you how many times I, or some other admin, has had to yell at
people who's trash folder was taking up 100M of space (or made their
account unable to receive email since they were at their quota) just
because they never checked it.  Even more annoying are clients like
Kmail that copy the deleted emails to a local trash folder - especially
some large, bandwidth hogging message that I know is crap - which is
also why I hate any email client that won't let me turn off the preview
pane, I can tell 90% of the crap just by the subject line, I don't need
to download the message just so I can delete it.
