How to delete an email in iOS 9?

[Snappy Phoenix]

I can't for the life of me find any delete option, there is only archive. Am I missing something here?

I've added my Gmail account to the native Email app

Go to "Settings"; "Mail"; and find Gmail under "Accounts". Then go to "Account" again from your Gmail and click "Advanced" in the subsequent menu. There you will find "Mailbox Behaviours". In the "Deleted Mailbox" box check if you have selected "Trash". Also, in the "move discarded messages into" box select "Deleted Mailbox".

That should do it.

Thanks chief.

Archive is default, most likely because The Goog wants to keep everything on its users.
