When adding other email accounts in the Mail app in an iPhone or iPad, such as a Gmail account, the Mail app sometimes adds the Archive button as the primary action for discarding messages.

  2. Tap on Passwords & Accounts.
  3. Tap on the account that has the Archive button, under the Accounts list.
  4. Tap on the Account with the email address.
  5. Tap on Advanced.
  6. Under the section Move Discarded Messages Into, select the Deleted Mailbox.
  7. Make sure you swipe back to the Account page, and tap on Done on the upper right corner, to take effect.
  8. You might need to restart the app or tap on another message to see the Delete button.
