Hi guys, it's not a gmail account so I'm not sure if this actually applies,
it's a pop account and not an imap account.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance - \Ed.

It's true that for IMAP, the default behavior in Gmail when you delete a
message is to remove all of the labels except for the trash label. these
messages will get deleted from the Gmail server after 60 days, I think.
Note, these messages don't need to be synced to your iPhone. I'm not sure if
POP behaves any differently though.
