I have an SMTP account with a Gmail address. When I click on Delete for an unwanted email, a line is drawn through it in the Inbox. How do I get it into a Trash folder? The only Trash folder I see is one under Local Folders.

If you cannot see the [Gmail]/Trash folder then perhaps you need to subscribe to see it.
