Do you want to move them to your computer, so you can keep them? If so, you should be able to go to Mailbox -> New Mailbox... and create a mailbox On My Mac, and then move the mail from your server to the new mailbox. If you simply want to delete them, go to Mail -> Preferences, click Accounts in the toolbar, select your account, and then click the Edit button. Click the Special Mailboxes tab, check both the "Move deleted messages to the Trash Mailbox", and "Store deleted messages on the server checkboxes", and then change the "Permenantly erase deleted messages when" to something reasonable, like one week (so that you have a chance to recover a mistakenly deleted message).
