I renamed those files Trashold and Trashold.msf, then restarted Icedove. 
Still no Trash icon in Icedove, but it did recreate the Trash and 
Trash.msf files in the Local Folders directory.  I rebooted, still no 
change. What should I try now?

By the way, instead of profile.default I have e3x3er35.default.
