Still seems to be little flaky the whole Delete Logic not much
documentation around the logic around those 4 items

So I have two Android devices and both are set the same way talking to my
own IMAP email server/account/provider, not GMAIL.

So here is what I did that seems to work majority of the time
1) Under  *Settings\Folder Settings* - I set all folders the same on all my
devices. Set to same IMAP Trash folder and the others appropriately.
>From what I understand is if that Trash folder is set then when you delete
a messages in your INBOX or any other folder the message will be  moved to
TRASH folder. Similar to what happens if use outlook.
2) Under *Settings\Account Settings\Fetch* mail I have the following set.
        a) *Sync Server Deletions: Checked*     From what I understand this
will keep the "TRASH" Folder in sync between all devices.
        b) *When I delete a Message: Delete from Server*     From what it
appears to me all this does is place the messages you jsut deleted into the
TRASH folder you listed in Step 1 above. Then since in 2a it makes sure the
TRASH folder is in sync between all devices using that IMAP.
        c) *Erase deleted messages on server:  Manually*    From what I
understand this will leave messages into your trash folder until you
EXPUNGE the folders.  I wish they would rename Erase to EXPUNGE.  So if you
set to Immediately or poll the messages would then also be expunged from
the TRASH folder.  Otherwise set to manual, you will have to run the
EXPUNGE when ever you want to purge the emails from TRASH which should then
clear messages from servers and all the other devices syncing with IMAP.
