I think this bug is NOT a duplicate of that one. In this bug there are no
greyed-out messages, you just cannot delete them (the option "Move to Wastebin"
is the only thing greyed-out), and you couldn't, ever.

As cluebat says, the only WORKAROUND I found is deleting completely the account
and then configuring it again without checking server-side subscriptions. If
you click it once, ever, you get the bug forever.
