Version: (using KDE 4.0.3) OS: Linux The concept of the trash is not only used in kmail, but also for the filesystem. For the file-system there is no default setting to empty it when logging out of kde, so this setting should neither be active for kmail by default , since it contradicts the behaviour of the "normal" trash.
