How do you set up deleting emails (marking as deleted, move to trash, delete immediately)?

Comment 2 Cao, Chen 2009-04-07 01:39:55 UTC

"move it to trash folder".

besides, 
1.
if I select "All Mail", and choose a mail to delete, it does disappear from the "All Mail" folder. 
2.
then I click on "Starred" folder and click "Spam", and then click on "All Mail" folder again, the deleted mail appears in "All Mail" again.

Closing as NOTABUG. For a weird and complicated story about Thunderbird and Gmail IMAP read for example
