Jones, are you using the IMAP interface to Gmail? If so, merely
pressing delete in Thunderbird on an email just gives it an additional
Gmail label [Imap]/Trash - you can see this if you go on to the Gmail
web interface. To really delete it, within TB you need to move the
email to the folder [Gmail]/Trash (or [Googlemail]/Bin if you're using
the UK English version of Gmail).

I hope this may help.

If you're not using IMAP then this will not help!
