Can't delete mail from Gmail, w/ option: delete mail when it is removed from trash
 
I use the bat Pro 3.0.1.33. I can receive gmail w/o problem. But when I delete some mail from trash. The mail still remained in Gmail.

Any comment?
 
That's because gmail doesn't allow deleting mail via the pop3 interface. The same happens when don't want to store it on the server, gmail keeps it anyway.
Even more so, gmail remembers what messages have been downloaded. So when you have two clients each with the setting to store mail on server for x days each polling the gmail account they each get half of the mail instead of all of the mail like with other pop3 servers.

You dont have to delete it, moving it to Gmails trash folder will solve the problem.
