If you are experiencing this, start by checking Gmail's Forwarding and POP/IMAP settings (at the misleading URL https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#settings/fwdandpop ). In the IMAP access area, check the second preference ("When I mark a message in IMAP as deleted") and - if that one is set to "Auto-Expunge off" - the related third preference "When a message is marked as deleted or expunged from the last visible IMAP folder". I experienced this bug with Auto-Expunge enabled, which is currently the default.

However, regardless of setting, the item always moved to Trash. This persisted after restart of the client. The settings save, but have no effect. Caveat: This was tested on two Google Apps for Domains accounts, though I suspect this behavior will happen with gmail.com accounts as well.
