When you "delete" from a view (Inbox, a label/folder) the mail stays in the "All Mail" folder (my HOF Lists "All Mail" folder has 26,000 messages in it for example). When you delete from the "All Mail" (or "Spam") folder specifically it moves to "trash" and then, finally, when you delete from trash (or just wait 30 days) it's gone for good. This is the same on every device/application I've used but it looks like the iPhone (of course) does whatever the hell it wants: ;^) http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78755 Here's the mapping of how actions from a client translate to gMail (with notes specific to the iPhone): http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=77657&ctx=sibling Hope this clears things up.
